¶Lyrics / Text

We be three poore mariners, newly come from the seas, We spend oure lives in jeopardy whiles others live at ease: Shall we goe daunce the round and shall we go daunce the round? And he that is a bully boy, Come pledge me on the ground. We care not for those martiall men that do our states disdain; but we care for those merchantmen that do our states maintain. To them we dance this round, and to them we dance the round. And he that is a bully boy, come pledge me on this ground.
