The Whitby Smugglers Song By Ocean's 5. Popeye!


A sea shanty. Lighthearted song of smugglers and the excise man. A great anthem to finish a comedy or family feel good movie. Naughty boys at sea. This could have been Thin Lizzie.

Lyrics

Well I just had a long long talk with a ferrier Captain.
Sailing in by the old quay side
his hull was full of tobacco and he smuggled off the estury tide

Give me a gunie for your Brandy
make me a profit on the Job
give me a guineee for your brandy
It's the Kings Excise man that i rob

Well the ship she came in at satlburn
John Andrews he was the Licencee
She came down through the borders of scotland
After spending 18 months out at sea

Give me a gunie for your Brandy
make me a profit on the Job
give me a guineee for your brandy
It's the Kings Excise man that i rob

Well the excise men they made an inspection
The tobacco was hiding under deck
when they searched the haul they hauled the men to prison
and they slung a noose around the Captains neck

Give me a gunie for your Brandy
make me a profit on the Job
give me a guineee for your brandy
It's the Kings Excise man that i rob

So Come all you sea fearers take warning
Don't sail the same tide as the Andrews
More be a jet miner or a whaler
for the Excise man will get you in the end

Give me a gunie for your Brandy
make me a profit on the Job
give me a guineee for your brandy
It's the Kings Excise man that i rob
