I'll try that again.
I'm learning a song that is off a Strawhead album, (I think.) It's got a glorious, long chorus but a couple of phrases are unclear.Third verse
The Madre de Dios is soon floating higher as ********** dealers ******
But, Hold, good Queen Bess to the West sends her treasurer
And all we true Devonish blades now turn tail.
For paying a tax on this God given fortune
Would be an affront to our good Saviour's eye
And surely we mean to give such offence
So fast up the post road with fat packs we flyCHORUS
So Hurrah for the West and Hurrah for the men who have brought this great treasure to gladden our view
Hurrah then to Burroughs and Norton and Thompson
Your good crewmen all, Here is brave thanks to you.
Hurrah for Tiger, the Warsite, the Roebuck,
Hurrah ??? to the Dane (Dainty?)? so bravely she fought.
And a last loud Hurrah for the Spaniard Mendoza
With his Madre de Dios now stuck in our portDoes anyone recognise the two phrases?
