 Your Lords & Lairds ar'on tiptoe ſtanding,

ready to repel the foe;

And Volunteers, with thoſe commanding,

to deal to Frenchmen mighty woe! &c.

Farmers and Peaſants--all are willing,

to ſupport both King & Country's cauſe;

He's nothing but a cowardly Villain,

that will not defend brave Britain's laws.

Rouſe up, Britons! roufe! here's dangers,

Frenchmen dare invade our coaſts:

To fight and conquer---you're no ſtrangers,

ſoon we'll tame theſe haughty boaſts.

e hearts of oak, who wiſh to try

your fortunes on the ſea,

And Britain's enemies defy.

come enter here with me;

Here's fifty pounds bounty, two month's pay,

and leave to go on ſhore,

With pretty girls to kiſs and play,

can Britiſh lars wiſh more?

Our ſhip is ſlout and ſails like wind,

to chaſe a hoſtile foe,

To fight like Britons we're inclin'd,

we'll let the Monſieurs know;

Our Captain's gen'rous, brave, and good,

of grog we'll have great ſtore,
