Subject: RE: Req: english language version of 'le Gabier Noir'

I found it on Spotify on an album titled Paroles et musique Michel Tonnerre (Chants de Marins). I can pick out a word or two, but I can't really understand the song. Do I hear the word "Frisco" repeated a number of times?

Can somebody post the French lyrics and at least a loose English translation? It's an intriguing song.
