Rumor di Mare - Spanish Ladies Lyrics

Farewell and adieu to you Spanish ladies
Farewell and adieu!
Farewell and adieu to you ladies of Spain
Farewell and adieu!
For we've received orders for to sail for old England
But we hope in a short time to see you again
Farewell and adieu!
We'll rant and we'll roar like true British sailors
We'll rant and we'll roar!
We'll rant and we'll roar all on the salt seas
We'll rant and we'll roar!
Until we strike soundings in the Channel of Old England
From Ushant to Scilly is thirty five leagues
We'll rant and we'll roar!
We hove our ship to with the wind from sou'west boys
We hove our ship to deep soundings to take
T'was forty-five fathoms with a white sandy bottom
So we squared our main yard and up channel did make
Now let every man drink off his full bumper
Now drink and farewell!
And let every man drink off his full glass
Now drink and farewell!
We'll sing and be jolly and drown melancholy
And here's to the health of each true-hearted lass
Now drink and farewell!
