Come all ye jolly men and nuns who'd like to take a tram, I'll tell you of the robber
Bo to over the sea then come.
He's [A] known to led us to the king in the eleventh part of
July, [D] to see if he would accept to have his jolly old company.
Oh no, no, [A] sir, the king
this thing can never be, for I fear you [D] are a robber, robber on the sea.
He has bought
a bonnie ship and set upon the sea.
We've borne twenty marrons to guard this bonnie
ship away.

And they sailed up and they sailed up, they stepped they ploughed and free, until
they saw the king's reindeer come sailing across the sea.
Well, all ye hear ye tinkers,
yes, they're a cowardly breed.
Well, all ye hear ye tinkers, and all are king and grave.
And they put [A] from one o'clock in the morn till it was six o'clock at night, until the king's
[D] reindeer was forced to take a bite.
[Dm] Oh, hum, [A] oh, hum ye tinkers, and tell your king, pray
me, all the heavy [D] king upon good wine and I didn't king upon the sea.
