Then up stepped the cabin boy And boldly out spoke he And he said to the captain "What would you give to me? If I would swim along side of the Spanish enemy And I sink her in the lowland, lowland, lowland, low And I sink her in the lowland sea?" "Oh I will give you silver And I will give you gold And the hand of my daughter your bonnie bride to be If you'll sneak along side of the Spanish enemy And you'll sink her in the lowland, lowland, lowland And you'll sink her in the lowland sea. Then the boy he made him ready And overboard sprang he And he swam along side of the Spanish enemy And with his auger shaft In the side he bored holes three And sank he her in the lowland, lowland, lowland He sank her in the lowland sea. Then the boy he turned around, And back swam he, And he cried out to the skipper Of the Golden Vanity, But the skipper did not heed, For his promise he would need, And he left him in the lowland, lowland, low, He left him in the lowland sea.
