lyrics

I was just a boy
When I came on board
Commissioned by my father
And sold to the sword
Oh lord
My lord
Just a boy.......
Just a boy when I come aboard

Midshipman at twelve
Not yet a man
His majesties navy
Sent me to a foreign land
My life
Of strife
A heavy hand
A life of strife 'neath a heavy hand

But I've sailed the seas
Living as I pleased
An old man now
Dying from disease
I've seen men die
And others live
A life on the sea
Will never forgive
