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, all hands
hoist the colors 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
The bell has been raised
from its watery grave
Do you hear its sepulchral tone?
We call to all
Pay heed the squall
and turn your sails to home
Yo, ho, all together
hoist the colors high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
never shall we die
Yo, ho, all together
hoist the colors high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
never shall we die
Yo, ho, all together
hoist the colors high
Heave ho, thief and beggar
never say we die!
