letra de when the willie went down - lee murdock

it was in october, fourteenth to be exact
prins willem was leavin’ town and never coming back
there were thirty men aboard her, there was goods down in the hold
on the night when the willie went down

the pilot stood upon the bridge, but how was he to know
the sinclair tug that crossed her bow, held a barge in tow
and the cable cut the willie and it opened up a hole
on the night when the willie went down

thеy all tried hard to save her whеn she headed to her grave
every effort made to save her has all been in vain
now she lies there on the bottom like some old abandoned bride
on the night when the willie went down

they have written off the cargo that was bound for amsterdam
and left it there for salvage crews to claim it if they can
so they’re bringing up the treasure that she carried down below
on the night when the willie went down

now they say that she is jealous of a crew that all was saved
why they never even got wet feet when she went to her grave
well the captain lost his charter, and the cabin boy did too
on the night when the willie went down

they say a ship gets haunted like the old mary celeste
and searches for another crew before her soul can rest
so one by one they’re shanghai’ed as they dive upon her wreck
on the night when the willie went down
it was in october, the ides to be exact
prins willem was outward bound and never coming back
the weather it was cloudy, it was cool before the mast
on the night when the willie went down. (repeat)
