Well, you knew this one was coming:



O the year was seventeen seventy eights,
(as I wish it that I come now in the Sherbrooke)
letter A marks of the king containers
scummiest would be who me actually saw

   It all, I was declared with of Gottfluch
   which we would cross the seas for the American gold
   that we did not ruin any rifles of them,
   of tears me a defective man
   on the Halifax-unloading dock are now,
   the last of Privateers Barretts abfeuern would become

O Elcid Barrett to cry the city,
(like I to wish it, that I in Sherbrooke)
maintaining twenty courageous man, any fisherman,
who for it it crew the Antelope to form

   (chorus)

Antilopensloop was sickening a sight,
(as I wish it that I would be in Sherbrooke, now)
which became it a list the barrier and with veils in the rags
and to cook you in Ueberlaufn-Sammelschale and points varies

   (chorus)

On the anniversary we place ourselves now of the king at the sea,
(as I wish it that I would be in Sherbrooke)
which hanging ninety days to us one were with the Montego bay
which pumps completely like the insane ones

   (chorus)

amndt ninety sixth segelten day us still,
(like I to wish it, that I in Sherbrooke now)
when bloody a large Yankee in sight
with our breaking furnace-pounders to raise, us to form, to fight to have

   (chorus)

It puts slightly downwards with gold,
(as I wish it that I would be in Sherbrooke maintaining)
the Yankee which loose in the stays it was extended and grassement,
but verfangen it it Antelope two days whole lasted

   (chorus)

and transports far Haupt-LKW the two my legs

   that we are the seas now for the American gold
   that we did not ruin fire steel of them
   the tears I would cross,
   only an incorrect man on dedéchargementdock
   the end of Privateers Barretts will fire


(the last chorus was a retranslation in reverse, just for variety)


Whew! That was as exhausting as singing the damn song. But, as I always say, at least it's done and behind me now.
