Barrett’s Privateers Jonathan Young (Ft. Annapantsu, Caleb Hyles, Colm R. McGuinness, Peyton Parrish & RichaadEB)
[Verse 1: Jonathan Young]
Oh, the year was 1778
How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now
Oh, a letter of marque came from the king
To the scummiest vessel I'd ever seen
[Refrain: Jonathan Young]
God damn them all
[Chorus: Jonathan Young]
I was told we'd sail the seas
For American gold
We'd fire no gun
Shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett's privateers
[Verse 2: Annapantsu]
Oh, Elcid Barrett cried the town
How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now
For twenty brave men, all fishermen who
Would make for him the Antelope's crеw
[Refrain: Annapantsu]
God damn them all
Oh, the year was 1778
How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now
Oh, a letter of marque came from the king
To the scummiest vessel I'd ever seen
[Refrain: Jonathan Young]
God damn them all
[Chorus: Jonathan Young]
I was told we'd sail the seas
For American gold
We'd fire no gun
Shed no tears
Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett's privateers
[Verse 2: Annapantsu]
Oh, Elcid Barrett cried the town
How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now
For twenty brave men, all fishermen who
Would make for him the Antelope's crеw
[Refrain: Annapantsu]
God damn them all
