A pirates life for me

by evan   Feb 12, 2006


Our ship, through the darkened seas it lurch
For lost treasure and gold we travel in search

Plundering and thieving and not giving back
We wreck and we pillage and we ransack

Against the raging waters we attack and we fight
We toil through the day as well as thought the night

Our lust for gold is a never ending craving
We travel the decks screaming and raving

We steal from the rich, but don't give to the poor
The more treasure we get, the more we want more

We bargain and banter, we steal and cheat
People with money we most like to meet

Our lives revolve around finding gold
We scream with glee as it fills our hold

We drink all the rum, and dance and sing
Being a wanted criminal, oh what joy it brings

The lawmen tell us, pirates ye be warned
At these feeble attempts we laugh and we scorn

They cannot catch us, we're above the law
We're the best thieves they ever saw

As wind fills the sails, we throw caution to the wind
They will never find us, we can never be pinned

Our very souls, our beings, are on the open sea
Yeah, this is the life, a pirates life for me
