Does anyone have the lyrics of this relatively new song? I could try to transcribe it from my recording of BLOOD ON THE ICE but I'm sure I'd be making a lot of mistakes. This fine song was composed by Ron Baxter during the recent bicentenial celebrations of the British naval victory at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1808; the tune is by "Albatrosity" according to the CD track notes.

"Common British Tars" pays tribute to the hundreds of British sailors who died at Trafalger and who were not honored in any special way at the time other than being shoveled over the side.

I've tried my usual Mudcat and web searches to no avail.

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
