[Verse] Oh the devil’s deep She calls my name A siren’s wail A lover’s flame Her waves they crash Her teeth they bite A sailor’s curse A thief at night [Chorus] Heave ho Lads The anchor's free The wind it howls The devil’s plea Raise the sails Let the tempest roar The devil’s deep We’re bound for shore [Verse 2] The blackened sky It hides her grin Her arms pull hard They drag you in No coin to pay No prayer to keep She’ll claim your soul The devil’s deep [Prechorus] Turn not your back Don’t test her wrath She’ll twist your course Uncharted path [Chorus] Heave ho Lads The anchor's free The wind it howls The devil’s plea Raise the sails Let the tempest roar The devil’s deep We’re bound for shore [Bridge] Oh The whiskey’s dry The crew’s half mad The sea’s our grave The best we’ve had Her laughter rings Her storm clouds leap She’ll take us all to the devil’s deep
