I know this song, and NEED the rest of the lyrics myself...
It's by a man who went by the name Tamaran or Tamarin in the SCA, and it goes like this:

Weigh hey Haul em up-Up from down below
we will go and haul the oysters up as they did so long ago.
Weigh hey, Haul em up- up from down below
Wash off the much, they're worth a buck in Californ-I O.

In the gold rush days eight businesssmen saw fortune to be made
Not digging gold out from the rocks but plying the oyster trade
They bought a ship, the Robert Bruce in the fall of 51
An eight foot two masted rig of 140 tons.

They didn't care to work the lines, nor scrub or cook the stew
Or do the other menial work- So they hired themselves a crew.
Now, the crew, his name was jefferson, and you have to understand
that on this over-captained ship he was the only hand.
He slaved and sweat through many a chore which caused his heart to stew
but the 'Bruce was bound for trouble with 8 captains and one crew...

I know the rest of the story told how they fought with him, and gave him a beating, and then he got even by drugging them, and setting their ship on fire. He took the dinghy and when they woke to find the ship in flames, had to swim for it. The ship couldn't be salvaged- not as a ship at least, so they pulled up what wood they could, and built a few shacks, and that town supposedly becae "Bruceport".

Anyone know the rest of the song? I can be reached at flashwitt@yahoo.com and I'd really love to have it complete again!
