Admiral Cole Lyrics

Brave Admiral Cole he's gone to sea, oh my boys-O
?Admiral Cole he's gone to sea-O?
Brave Admiral Cole he has gone to sea
Along of our ship's company?
On board the bold Benjamin-O

We sail-ed our course away for Spain, oh my boys-O
?Sailed our course away for Spain-O?
Sail-ed our course away for Spain?
Our silver and gold for to gain?
On board the bold Benjamin-O

We sail-ed out five hundred men, oh my boys-O?
Sailed out five hundred men-O?
We sail-ed out five hundred men
?And we brought back but sixty one?
They were lost in bold Benjamin-O

And when we come to Blackwall, oh my boys-O?
When we come to Blackwall-O?
And when we come to Blackwall?
Our captain so loudly did call?
Here comes the bold Benjamin-O

Here's the mothers crying for their sons, oh my boys-O?
The mothers crying for their sons-O?
Here's the mothers crying for their sons?
And the widows all for their husbands?
That were lost in bold Benjamin-O
