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 colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die
Yo ho, all 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, all together
Hoist the colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die
(Instrumental)
The bell has been raised from it's watery grave
Do you hear it's sepulchral tone?
We call to all pay heed the squall
And turn your sail toward home
Yo ho, all together
Hoist the colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die
Yo ho, all together
Hoist the colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die
