IN fair and pleasant Weather, Our Army got together, About the Shores of Calis, But Fortune show'd her Malice, As we are often told, As we are often told. We thought to be commanded To go on Board, and Landed In Kent, at famous Dover, But we could ne'r get over, Our Courage waxed cold, Our Courage waxed cold. We march'd away from Flanders, Both Soldiers and Commanders, For this great Undertaking, Brave France we were forsaking, And being often told, And being, etc. As we was Sons of Thunder, We soon should roul in Plunder, Three Kingdoms lay before us, But we were crost by Boreas, And Courage waxed cold, And Courage, etc. We lay so long contriving, Begar, it spoil'd our thriving, The Prince which we attended, Is heartily offended, That Fortune prov'd unkind, That Fortune, etc. Yet if we would but venture, And those three Kingdoms enter, We shall have store of Treasure, And Riches out of measure, Yes, when the Devil's blind, Yes, etc. They tell a pleasant Story, That we may purchase Glory, Without the fear of Danger, Though Lewis be a Stranger, Yet Protestants are kind, Yet, etc.
If we declare a Pardon, Although not worth a Farthing, They'll readily believe us, And lovingly receive us, Yes, when the Devil's blind, Yes, etc. Perhaps they may Invite us, And then, Begar, they'll fight us With Musket, Bomb and Cannon, The Boyn and River Shannon, Declares them to be kind, Declares, etc. Begar, day are for Killing, And shall we den be willing To leave our Native-Nation, For such an Invitation, Yes, when the Devil's blind, Yes, etc. If e're day catch us coming Wid sounding Charge and Druming To England, where day'll bang us, We'll give dem leave to hang us, Begar, we no touch mind, Begar, etc. 'Tis true our Monks and Fryers, Declares we shall be Squires, And have our lousie Breeches, Well lin'd vid London Riches, Yes, when the Devil's blind, Yes, etc. The famous Town of Calis, The which was like a Palace, With Bombs they now have batter'd, The Buildings burn'd and shatter'd This is the Love we find, This is the Love we find. Their Catholicks may call us, But Williamites will maul us; Then shall we go for Plunder, Where Guns will roar like Thunder, Yes, when the Devil's blind, Yes, when the Devil's blind.
