Eastindiamen Ye Banished Privateers

Eastindiamen - Ye Banished Privateers
Oh the Tryal sank North-West of Australia
In skiff and longboat, officers prevailed
Left to drown no wonder, close to brave one hundred
Sailors rest now at Tryal Rocks
Left to drown no wonder, close to brave one hundred
Sailors rest now at Tryal Rocks

Oh the Earl was sailed by Captain John Wordsworth
Sunk in the Napoleonic wars
The hull was torn asunder, over a two hundred
In the channel drowned and disappeared
The hull was torn asunder, over a two hundred
In the channel drowned and disappeared

Eastindiamen
Never to return
We grieve our missing friends
Swallowed by the waves at sea

Oh the Doddington was bound for India
Struck a rock off Port Elisabeth
Oh the ship went under, out of all three hundred
Twenty-seven made it back alive
Oh the ship went under, out of all three hundred
Twenty-seven made it back alive
