Hello all,

I wonder if you can help me source a song about Admiral Philip de Sausmarez of Guernsey. I once heard Sean Laffey sing it and I'd love to have the lyrics, as I think he said it was the only folk song in English he'd found to have originated from the island. The bit I can remember goes

It was by a bold sea captain
Phil Sausmarez was his name
He was bent with full intent
Old England's foes to slay

A few of these words could be wrong of course! Any help greatly appreciated. Does anyone know any other good songs from Guernsey?

Many thanks all,

Jenny
