If you sink her off the Lowlands low."
"Then row me up ticht in a black bull's skin,
And throw me oer deck-buird, sink I or swim.
As ye sail to the Lowlands low."
So they've rowed him up ticht in a black bull's skin,
And have thrown him oer deck-buird, sink he or swim.
As they sail to the Lowlands low.
About, and about, and about went he,
Until he cam up with the French gallee.
As they sailed to the Lowlands low.
