| Who'll make his mark The Captain cried To the Devil drink a toast We'll glut the hold With cups of gold And we'll feed the sea with ghosts I see your hunger for a fortune Could be better Served beneath my flag If you've the stomach For a broadside Come aboard my pretty boys I will take you and make you Everything you've ever dreamed Make fast the guns tonight we sail When the high tide floods the bay Cut free the lines And square the yards Get the black flag stowed away The Turk the Arab and the Spaniard Will soon have pennies on their eyes And any other laden fancy We will take her by surprise I will take you and make you Everything you've ever dreamed Six days off the Cuban coast When a sail ahead they spied A Galleon of the treasure fleet The mizzen lookout cried Closer to the wind my boys The mad eyed Captain roared For every man that's alive tonight Will be hauling gold aboard Spare us the galleon begged But mercy's face had fled Blood ran from the screaming souls The cutlass harvested Driven to the quarter deck The last survivor fell She's ours my boys The Captain grinned And no one left to tell The Captain rose from a silk divan With a pistol in his fist And shot the lock from an iron box And a blood red ruby kissed I give you jewelry of turquoise A crucifix of solid gold One hundred thousand silver pieces It is just as I foretold You, you see there before you Everything you've ever dreamed Anchored in an indigo moonlit bay Gold eyed 'round fires The sea thieves lay Morning, white shells And a pipe of clay As the wind filled their footprints They were far, far away Our sails swell full As we brave all seas On a westward wind To live as we please With the wicked wild eyed woman Of portobello town Where we've been told That a purse of gold Buys any man a crown They will serve you and cloth you Exchange your rags For the velvet coats of kings Who'll drink a toast with me I give you liberty This town is ours - tonight Landlord wine And make it the finest Make it a cup for a sea dogs thirst Two long years of bones and beaches Fever and leaches did their worst So fill the night with paradise Bring me peach and peacock 'Till I burst But first, I want a soft touch In the right place I want to feel like a king tonight Ten on the black To beat the Frenchman Back you dogs Give them room to turn Now open wide sweet Heavens gate Tonight were gonna See if Heaven burns I want an angel on a gold chain And I'll ride her to the stars It's the last time For a long, long time Come the daybreak we embark On the flood of the morning tide Once more the ocean cried This company will return one day Though we feel your tears It's the price we pay For there's prizes to be taken And glory to be found Cut free the chains Make fast your souls We are eldorado bound I will take you For always, forever, together Until Hell calls our names Who'll drink a toast with me To the Devil and the deep blue sea Gold drives a man to dream | |
