Kind Captain, I've important information,
Sing hey, the kind commander that you are,
About a certain intimate relation,
Sing hey, the merry maiden and the tar.

Good fellow, in conundrums you are speaking,
Sing hey, the mystic sailor that you are,
The answer to them vainly I am seeking;
Sing hey, the merry maiden and the tar.
Sing hey, the mystic sailor that you are,
The answer to them vainly I am seeking;
Sing hey, the merry maiden and the tar.

This very might with Rackstraw to be flying;
Sing hey, the merry maiden and the tar.

Good fellow, you have given timely warning,
Sing hey, the thoughtful sailor that you are,
I'll talk to Master Rackstraw in the morning,
Sing hey, the cat-o'-nine-tails and the tar.

The merry cat-o'-nine-tails,
The merry cat-o'-nine-tails,

Dick Deadeye — I thank you for your warning — I will at once
take means to arrest their flight. This boat cloak will afford me
ample disguise — So! (Envelops himself in a mysterious cloak,
holding it before his face.)
