歌曲歌詞
Out in an English harbor waits an old but rugged ship
Waiting for a crew of men so she can make her trip
Out searching was the best gang
That everyone knew well
A-searchin' the streets and gutters
So the Defiant could set sail
The captain ordered to see the men
To pick them for his crew
Called for headstruck daughters
But for all the good men too
Out to sail this morning Italy was her destiny
To escort back a convoy that was helpless on the sea
The HMS Defiant sailed to live up to her name
There was no word of mutiny aboard
But who was there to blame
The Defiant reached its destiny
No timber ships in sight
So returning home the French approached;
The Defiant had to fight
She captured herself a vessel
With a chest of jewels aboard
Along with the Frenchmen
Who advised Napoleon under his sword
With Captain Culvert wounded was there not a man to care
The first lieutenant took command with mutiny in the air
The breakout be with 2 men named Evans and Vazar
Commanded the mutineers
To take the ship where they desired
The HMS Defiant sailed to live up to her name
There was no word of mutiny aboard
But who was there to blame
The English were surrounded
By the French who came to fight
With love for England the mutineers turned to fight
With all their might
The Defiant walked through through fire
And hell to save the Admiral Fleet
A pardon keepin' the mutineers
From making the French retreat
The HMS Defiant sailed to live up to her name
The word of mutiny now was gone
And no man was to blame
The HMS Defiant sailed to live up to her name
The word of mutiny now was gone
And no man was to blame
The HMS Defiant sailed to live up to her name
The word of mutiny now was gone
And no man was to blame
The HMS Defiant sailed to live up to her name
The word of mutiny now was gone
And no man was to blame
