Coast Of High Barbary - Joseph Arthur

There were two lofty ships
From old England came
Blow high, blow low
And so sail we
One was the Prince of Luthe
And the other Prince of Wales
Cruisin' down the coast
Of High Barbary
Aloft there, aloft
Our jolly bosun cried
Blow high, blow low
And so sail we
Look ahead, look astern,
Look the weather look a-lee\"
Look down the coast
Of High Barbary
There's naught upon the stern,
There's naught upon our lee
Blow high, blow low
And so sail we
But there's a lofty ship to wind'ard
An' she's sailin' fast and free
Down along the coast
Of High Barbary
Oh hail her, oh hail he
Our gallant captain cried
Blow high, blow low
And so sail we
Are you a man-o-wa
A privateer, a merchant ship?cried he
Cruisin' down the coast
Of High Barbary
I am not a man-o-war,
A privateer,\"said he
Blow high, blow low
And so sail we
But I am a salt sea pirate
A-looking for me fee
Down along the coast
Of High Barbary
For Broadside, for broadside
A long time we lay
Blow high, blow low
And so sail we
Until the Prince of Luthe
Shot the pirate's mast away
Down along the coast
Of High Barbary
For quarter, for quarte
The pirates they did cry
Blow high, blow low
And so sail we
But the answer that we gave them
We sunk them in the sea
Cruisin' down the coast
Of High Barbary
Cruisin' down along the coast
Of High Barbary
Cruisin' down along the coast
of High Barbary
