ROuse up your spirits and make haste away, and cast away needlesse sorrow and care, There is such a Navy of Ships on the Sea, that hath not bin seene this thousand yeares: With tan ta ra ra ra, tan ta ra ra, Tan ta ra ra ra, tan ta ra ra. Wee Sea-men invite you to helpe in each thing you Land-men if ever you meane to be blest, From whom your joy and comfort doth spring, without whom your Land can never have rest, With tan ta ra ra ra, etc. With that bespake the Duke so bold, follow my councell every one, You shall want neither Silver nor Gold, in setting my Brother now on his throne: With tan ta ra ra ra, etc.
Then good Prince Charles did send them word, that they should not too forward be, O I am unwilling to draw my Sword, I'd rather have them yeeld to me: With tan ta ra ra ra, etc. My Lord Montrosse, did answer and say, will you stand still and loose your right? They doe but laugh at your delay, but wee are resolved with them to fight: With tan ta ra ra ra, etc. Your Sea-mens hearts are valiant and true, they wish that right may now take place, They'l spend their dearest blood for you, so well they love your Royall Grace: With tan ta ra ra ra, tan ta ra ra, Tan ta ra ra ra ra, tan ta ra ra.

WIth that bespake the Sea-men then with good Prince Charles wee'l live and dye, Wee'l shew ourselves right honest men, fight for our Prince and liberty: With tan ta ra ra ra, tan ta ra ra, Tan ta ra ra ra, tan ta ra ra. There's none of them all though they be bace, shall ever bring us to their Bow Wee'l stoope to none but to his Grace, to whom true honour now is due: With tan ta ra ra ra, etc. When the Land-souldiers heard these words, their joy of heart did much abound, Quoth they, while wee have strength & swords, wee will not yeeld an inch of ground: With tan ta ra ra ra, etc. [S]tand you fast brave Sea-men wee pray. and wee shall soone our Foes confound, Wee will not rest by night nor day, Untill we make Prince Charles renown'd: With tan ta ra ra ra, etc.
And when wee bring him to his right, wee hope these Civill Warrs will cease. Wee shall have then no cause to fight, if God and they conclude a peace: With tan ta ra ra ra, etc. Here's a Health to all by Sea and Land, that doth the Royall Cause defend That bravely for Prince Charles will stand, to bring his troubles to an end: W[i]th tan ta ra ra ra, etc. God send's the rule wee had before, be the better for honest men, 'Twill be the better for rich and poore, for wee shall have no fals-hood then: With tan ta ra ra ra, etc. God blesse the man that made this Song, for he hath honestly playd his part, 'Tis pitty he should suffer wrong, who loves the Prince with all his heart: With tan ta ra ra ra, tan ta ra ra, Tan ta ra ra ra, tan ta ra ra.
