about

Ye Death of Calico Jack is taken from the studio album Legends & Tales.

lyrics

The sun had set, the bell had rung
A sudden glimpse from where he’d been hung
The ship all empty, no one on board
The wind whispered Anne Bonny’s last words:

”Had you fought like a man you needn’t
Have been hanged like a dog,
You needn’t have been hanged like a dog.
Had you fought like a man you needn’t
have been hanged like a dog”

He drank from his cup and went out on deck
The rope around his dirty old neck
Barefoot, ashamed, without his sword
And the wind whispered Anne Bonny’s last words:

”Had you fought like a man you needn’t
Have been hanged like a dog,
You needn’t have been hanged like a dog.
Had you fought like a man you needn’t
have been hanged like a dog”

Once born and raised on English ground
Then tried and convicted in a Spanish town
Now setting out on his last journey oh Lord
And the wind whispers Anne Bonny’s last words:

”Had you fought like a man you needn’t
Have been hanged like a dog,
You needn’t have been hanged like a dog.
Had you fought like a man you needn’t
have been hanged like a dog”
