Beneath the Black Flag

Out on the endless ocean We tear along the gales With rum inside our bellies warm And freedom in our sails A wayward bunch of scoundrels Assassins, thieves, and slaves The rich and blue bloods fear us when we hunt upon the waves And when you see it coming That flag of baleful black No point in turning tail, there's no escaping our attack Yo-ho, yo-ho We row beneath the black flag A rollickin' we go We own the sea and sky Yo-ho, yo-ho We row beneath the black flag A rollickin' we go We bleed the kingdoms dry Defying odds against us A pirate knows no fear Our steel is ready and our retribution is severe We plunder from the greedy With blood and with our steel We rob the rich of their ill-gotten gain and make them kneel Behold the ocean's mysteries The tales of ancient deeds We follow in the footsteps of a silent secret creed (Come on lads) Yo-ho, yo-ho We row beneath the black flag A rollickin' we go We own the sea and sky Yo-ho, yo-ho We row beneath the black flag A rollickin' we go We bleed the kingdoms dry (Hoist the black flags, lads) Justice runs in crimson rivers Yo-ho, yo-ho We row beneath the black flag A rollickin' we go We own the sea and sky Yo-ho, yo-ho We row beneath the black flag A rollickin' we go We own the sea and sky Yo-ho, yo-ho We row Beneath the black flag A rollickin' we go We bleed the kingdoms dry
