O are you a pirate or a man o'war? Cried we Blow high! Alow low! and so sailed we. O no! I'm not a pirate, but a man o'war, cried he, A-sailing down all on the coasts of High Barbaree. Then back up your topsails and heave your vessel to; Blow high! Alow low! and so sailed we. For we have got some letters to be carried home by you. A-sailing down all on the coasts of High Barbaree. We'll back up our topsails and heave our vessel to; Blow high! Alow low! and so sailed we. But only in some harbour and along the side of you. A-sailing down all on the coasts of High Barbaree.
