and my schooner’s had her day
no more to tease those cursed cutters
dashing ’round the bay

but i was well outside
the three-mile limit

by morning we were spied
but i was well outside

and they blew their whistle thrice
while i lay languid in the fo’c’sle
brandy had me tight

i started up to rise
but i was well outside
the three-mile limit

a crime you did commit
for ottawa has changed the law
to a twelve-mile limit

so i’ve seen the last of brandy
and my schooner’s had her day
no more to tease those cursed cutters
dashing ’round the bay

my running days are over now
no more i’ll watch the tide
but i was well outside
the three-mile limit
the three-mile limit
the three-mile limit
