Come on Home 04:01
Come beggars and boozers, come harlots and thieves Come wharf rats and ragged misfit crews Come daughters of milkmaids, come haberdasher sons Come all ye with nothing to lose From every dark alley, from brothels and pubs From dungeons and gaols, chained and tied From ramshackle houses, from backwater streets From ruins and rubble we will rise Come on home, [come on home], come on brothers in blood Come wharf rats and ragged misfit crews Come on home, [come on home], come on sisters in blood Come all ye with nothing to lose Sail away from your rulers, from tyrants and kings Sail away from high priests and popes Sail away from serfdom, from toil and despair Sail away from a life without hope The flag shows our colours, black as the night The flag is a warning to all The flag claims allegiance to none but ourselves The flag carries crossbones and skull Come on home, [come on home], come on brothers in blood Come wharf rats and ragged misfit crews Come on home, [come on home], come on sisters in blood Come all ye with nothing to lose Come on home, [come on home], come on brothers in blood Come wharf rats and ragged misfit crews Come on home, [come on home], come on sisters in blood Come all ye with nothing to lose Come on home, [come on home], come on brothers in blood Come wharf rats and ragged misfit crews Come on home, [come on home], come on sisters in blood Come all ye with nothing to lose Come on home, [come on home], come on brothers in blood Come wharf rats and ragged misfit crews Come on home, [come on home], come on sisters in blood Come all ye with nothing to lose Come on home, [come on home], come on brothers in blood Come wharf rats and ragged misfit crews Come on home, [come on home], come on sisters in blood Come all ye with nothing to lose

By the Law 04:30
As we sailed round the headland of Gun Cay one day I spied a young sailor, off the gibbet he swayed His face was all ghastly, pale as the shore And I guess he’d been there for the whole night or more A chain out of iron covered his limbs As the ocean reflected his destiny grim One look at his face showed the hard road he bear Small men are big threat for he who won’t share For reason or justice, now one more be gone By the law, one more be gone Leavin’ nobody to carry him home By the law, one more be gone By the law, one more be … “Behold our future!” the bosun proclaimed The punishment chosen for not being tamed Let us be hanged, we have been treated worse But into my grave I shall bring their fat purse Drink bottom up for this brother of ours And don’t take to much of a liking to your life Don’t fear no death for it comes to us all Let’s see this fucking order first quiver and fall For reason or justice, now one more be gone By the law, one more be gone Leavin’ nobody to carry him home By the law, one more be gone By the law, one more be … For reason or justice, one more be gone A weak arm, a strong arm, one more be gone A short sword, a long sword, one more be gone We shall be murdered for what they have done The navies shall claim their heroic strife For taking a seaman from children and wife For haunting this young lad’s parents’ life By the law, one more be gone By reason or justice, one more be gone By the law one more be gone Leaving nobody to carry him home By the law, one more be gone By the law one more be …

The Debt 03:37
From the depths of the seas came a whispering call “Adventure is waiting for you!” Did my last honest job when I was 18 years old Got a gold piece to serve in a crew I have lied, I have cheated, I’ve been drunk like a horse I have killed countless men without regret I made a deal with the Devil, offered him my ugly soul He shook my hand and the deal was set For every sin there’s a debt to be paid Repentance must come to us all An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth In the end you must reap what you sow Took a prize once, a sloop, on the coast of Aberdeen Seven sailors, but not much to steal We took what we wanted an’ tied ’em up in that ol’ sloop Let it burn and laughed as they screamed I have lied, I have cheated, I’ve been drunk like a horse I have killed countless men without regret But even in the darkest soul sometimes fear can be found I hear ’em scream in my sleep now and then For every sin there’s a debt to be paid Repentance must come to us all An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth In the end you must reap what you sow We were raiding fat merchant vessels on the Bay of Biscay When a French Man-o-War came swooping in She carried 40 guns or more, we only had 16 left We surrendered, and they took us in I have lied, I have cheated, I’ve been drunk like a horse I have killed countless men without regret Waiting now, in a cold cell, to be sentenced to hang Waiting for death, bracing for the end For every sin there’s a debt to be paid Repentance must come to us all An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth In the end you must reap what you sow For every sin there’s a debt to be paid Repentance must come to us all An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth In the end you must reap what you sow For every sin there’s a debt to be paid Repentance must come to us all An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth In the end you must reap what you sow In the end you must reap what you sow In the end you must reap what you sow

When your life’s gonna end As you hold your breath When your life’s gonna end In the hangman’s noose Feel the rope around your neck Your hands are tied Smell of death in the air Nobody cries As you’re standing alone In a wind blowing cold Waiting for the priest To bless your soul When your life’s gonna end As you hold your breath When the lines in your palms Speak of nothing but death When the demons inside Are finally let loose When your life’s gonna end In the hangman’s noose When the priest done his job ”Our Father” been told When your sins have been cleared Your hand of glory sold When the words from the judge Echo in your head: ”You must reap what you sow And hang ’til you’re dead” When your life’s gonna end As you hold your breath When the lines in your palms Speak of nothing but death When the demons inside Are finally let loose When your life’s gonna end In the hangman’s noose When today’s cloudy sky Is the last you see When at last the Reaper Will come for thee When you’re ready to go Into everlasting night When you close your eyes As the noose pulls tight When your life’s gonna end As you hold your breath When the lines in your palms Speak of nothing but death When the demons inside Are finally let loose When your life’s gonna end In the hangman’s noose When your life’s gonna end In the hangman’s noose

I watch to the horizon where the sky and ocean meet For every sun that’s rising is a day of fate I’ll cheat The ocean is my comforter, the wind my laughing friend My burdens you shall carry, until the jolly end The wind fill up the bursting sails, they’re longing to be free The ropes will stretch and play their song, the sailor melody The music of a wanderer’s life, the rhythm of my heart My restless mind and wandering thoughts are longing to depart The pirate life has chosen me, I leave no one behind There’s nothing to forsake as I take all that I find But I trust my men to once and again, detain a troubled mind But I trust my men to once and again, detain a troubled mind If you had sailed and seen the lot, the ugly naked truth You’d wish you could go back to that innocence of youth I don’t know when but through these years, I’ve changed my ways and smell As soon as I come closer to land they wish me back to hell The day I’m caught I hope to find a rope around my neck No peace I’ll find away from the jolting wooden deck This ship’s my home, if she goes down there’s nothing left to say I sleep as I lay, in my cabin I’ll stay until my final day The pirate life has chosen me, I leave no one behind There’s nothing to forsake as I take all that I find But I trust my men to once and again, detain a troubled mind But I trust my men to once and again, detain a troubled mind I conquer but the mankind, for nature I cannot My reverence for her is the only prayer I’ve got The ocean hide my salty tears the wind carry my name And when I go, it’s better to know I’ve got only myself to blame The pirate life has chosen me, I leave no one behind There’s nothing to forsake as I take all that I find But I trust my men to once and again, detain a troubled mind But I trust my men to once and again, detain a troubled mind Yeah I trust my men to once and again, detain a troubled mind

As I was walking down a Dublin street A lovely sunny day I came across a ragged ol’ man Sittin’ in my way His clothes were old, an eye was gone His beard was long and gray I asked him what he wanted He said: ”This is what I’ll say:” I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink I’m gonna drink until I’m drunk and never gonna stop I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up I went fishing off the coast of my Beloved Ireland green I got a wondrous catch It was the first I’d ever seen A mermaid sweet and fair With curly hair and eyes so green I asked her what she wanted She said: ”Listen carefully:” I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink I’m gonna drink until I’m drunk and never gonna stop I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up Outside a burnt-out church With his head in his hands There sat a priest mumbling To himself some pious chants With empty eyes he seemed so lost Abandoned by his saints I asked him what he wanted He said ”These are my demands:” I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink I’m gonna drink until I’m drunk and never gonna stop I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up In a pub an army captain sat Sippin’ on his beer He’d been a soldier all his life Killing everywhere ”I hate that bloody king” he whispered With an angry sneer I asked him what he wanted He said ”This is why I’m here:” I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink I’m gonna drink until I’m drunk and never gonna stop I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink I’m gonna drink until I’m drunk and never gonna stop I’m gonna drink, I’m gonna drink I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up I’m gonna drink my way to heaven and never sober up

When I first went aboard that bloody godforsaken ship Davy Jones held out his hand and offered me a trip But the trip I got was a slavery job, with no chance of a pay Now I’m stuck here cleaning decks, until my dying day Oh, it could be worse, don’t try to boast, our lives have no good reason The Flying Dutchman’s men we be in tragedy and treason Oh, it could be worse, don’t try to boast, our lives have no good reason The Flying Dutchman’s men we be in tragedy and treason You speak of cleaning deck like it’s an awful thing to do There are far worse jobs below the deck that I could offer you Have you ever wondered why I’m scarred from my shoulders to my hip The boatswain is still using me while practising his whip Oh, it could be worse, don’t try to boast, our lives have no good reason The Flying Dutchman’s men we be in tragedy and treason Oh, it could be worse, don’t try to boast, our lives have no good reason The Flying Dutchman’s men we be in tragedy and treason The velvet touch of cat-o’-nine is music to my ears I have been hanging upside down for 27 years Me feet are numb, I cannot eat, I’m living in disgrace For everytime I need to go, I do it in my face Oh, it could be worse, don’t try to boast, our lives have no good reason The Flying Dutchman’s men we be in tragedy and treason Oh, it could be worse, don’t try to boast, our lives have no good reason The Flying Dutchman’s men we be in tragedy and treason I’d be happy like a lobster hanging upside down like you Let me tell a story, it is absolutely true Once while I got keelhauled, my bollocks they got stuck And the men didn’t stop their pulling and my manly parts were plucked If you think that’s all of it, you’d better think again They thought I was a wench, a gift from Davy Jones to them No manly parts, no bollocks left, no fiddle there to see The men lined up took turns impregnating me Oh, it could be worse, don’t try to boast, our lives have no good reason The Flying Dutchman’s men we be in tragedy and treason Oh, it could be worse, don’t try to boast, our lives have no good reason The Flying Dutchman’s men we be in tragedy and treason Oh, it could be worse, don’t try to boast, our lives have no good reason The Flying Dutchman’s men we be in tragedy and treason Oh, it could be worse, don’t try to boast, our lives have no good reason The Flying Dutchman’s men we be in tragedy and treason

’Twas a cursed night in April A heavy rain was comin’ down A tired nightwatch freezing in a tower High above a sleeping town Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse But it also comes with a curse Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse But it also comes with a curse Raj-raj-raj-rararaj-raj-raj Rararaj-raj-raj-rararaj A pirate ship is coming close Hidden in the darkness of night Its gunners loading up their guns Getting ready for a merciless fight Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse But it also comes with a curse Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse But it also comes with a curse Raj-raj-raj-rararaj-raj-raj Rararaj-raj-raj-rararaj The city awakens from its sleep ”Pirates! The pirates are here!” Killing and searching for gold Leaving dead bodies everywhere Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse But it also comes with a curse Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse But it also comes with a curse Raj-raj-raj-rararaj-raj-raj Rararaj-raj-raj-rararaj The devils from the sea took what they wanted Bringing back to their ship the city’s gold Leaving carnage and chaos and fire in exchange The city governor a dead body, cold Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse But it also comes with a curse Silver an’ gold fill a rich man’s purse But it also comes with a curse Raj-raj-raj-rararaj-raj-raj Rararaj-raj-raj-rararaj Raj-raj-raj-rararaj-raj-raj But it also comes with a curse

Black Sails 03:58
Haul wind my laddies no prey no pay Hoist the Jolly Roger with me We’re forever free to no royals we will kneel For the Black Sails will forever carry on We will fight together for man’s equality Our sisters and brothers will be freed from poverty We’ll stand together, we’ll stand strong The Black sails will forever carry on Storms ahead of us, our heads held high The taste of freedom fills us with hope In unity we sail, against dark winds we’ll prevail For the Black Sails will forever carry on We will fight together for man’s equality Our sisters and brothers will be freed from poverty We’ll stand together, we’ll stand strong The Black sails will forever carry on We will fight together for man’s equality Our sisters and brothers will be freed from poverty We’ll stand together, we’ll stand strong The Black sails will forever carry on The Black sails will forever carry on The Black sails will forever carry on

Above me a dark cloudy sky A rain coming down cold as ice The wind rips our sails into rags Cursed be the ruler of skies Waves rolling by reaching into the sky Higher than ever before Coming onto our ship like a mad captain’s whip Crashing with a deafening roar Tonight is the night when we die In watery graves end our lives Cursed be our souls as we lie ’Til reckoning day has arrived Tonight we will die you and I Tonight we will die you and I Below me the depths of the sea Where sweet mermaids live, I am told that it’s true Where ever there’s darkness and cold Where Kraken is waiting for both me and you Flashes of light leaving scars on your sight Bright as sun turning night into day Claps of thunder I hear coming from everywhere Echoes that won’t fade away Tonight is the night when we die In watery graves end our lives Cursed be our souls as we lie ’Til reckoning day has arrived Tonight we will die you and I Tonight we will die you and I Ahead waters waiting, unknown Our headings are lost, our rudder is gone We’re listing already too much We all know for sure our ship will go down Drifting and lost, like a rag being tossed Losing our fight ’gainst the sea To the darkness below our journey will go Tonight we will die you and I Tonight is the night when we die In watery graves end our lives Cursed be our souls as we lie ’Til reckoning day has arrived Tonight we will die you and I Tonight we will die you and I Tonight we will die you and I Tonight we will die you and I Tonight we will die you and I

I do not forget, the day we first met In a small seaside tavern, her vague silhouette I was there to make money in New Providence And I haven’t glanced at another lass since I do not forget, the days that I spent Lost in your bosom, high on your scent Your voice rang clear and I played mandolin My name on your lips, my lips on your skin My love is for thee, so it shall be His love is for her, so will be I sail away and these days be gone I have been called out to sea One last voyage, with ye I belong And true is my love for thee I do not forget my ring on your hand A small ceremony, our names in the sand We spoke of our future, our own place to hide The last day I spent with you by my side I do not forget, the day I set sail Tears in my eyes, a distant wail Determined to keep the promise I made To return to my love, a servant maid Its a promise, my dear, my love for thee Its his promise, dear, his love for thee I sail away and these days be gone I have been called out to sea One last voyage, for with ye I belong And true is my love for thee! I do not forget, the day I returned A rumour reached me, the tavern had burned Dream now my nymph, as I behold My love in the ashes of the promise I told My love is for thee, will always be My love is for thee, will always be My love is for thee, will always be My love is for thee I sail away and these days be gone I have been called out to sea One last voyage, for with ye I belong And true is my love for thee I sail away and these days be gone I have been called out to sea One last voyage, for with ye I belong And true is my love for thee

The king and his men Stole the queen from her bed And bound her in her bones The seas be ours And by the powers Where we will, we’ll roam The king and his men Stole the queen from her bed And bound her in her bones The seas be ours And by the powers Where we will, we’ll roam Yo ho, haul together Hoist the colours high Heave ho, thieves and beggars Never shall we die Some men have died And some are alive And others sail on the sea With the keys to the cage And the devil to pay We lay to Fiddler’s green Yo ho, haul together Hoist the colours high Heave ho, thieves and beggars Never shall we die The bell has been raised From its watery grave Do you hear its sepulchral tone We are a call to all Pay heed the squall And turn your sail toward home Yo ho, haul together Hoist the colours high Heave ho, thieves and beggars Never shall we die Yo ho, haul together Hoist the colours high Heave ho, thieves and beggars Never shall we die

Sleep, Sleep 02:56
Sleep, sleep, waves passing by Waves traveled from afar Sleep, sleep, waves shall ease Waves in the early morning cease Resting along the shoreline Sleep, sleep, wind wailing by Wind with the north entailed Sleep, sleep, wind shall abate The forest of Dartmore exhilarate Singing the laud of a blackbird Sleep, sleep, flee like the sun Into the west she wanders Sleep, sleep, in darkness succumb Drunk from the oaky Mount Gay rum Bid she enlighten the fallen Sleep, sleep, rocked by the sea Safe in her bosom linger Sleep, sleep, worries shall wane Soon you will see your beloved again In her bed no rest I ensure you
