Heave away, me lads, heave away, The sea’s our home, we’ll ne’er betray! Gold in our hold and rum in our veins, We’ll ride the storm through wind and rains! We left the shore with a cannon’s roar, A life of plunder, wantin’ more. No king nor crown can chain our will, We’ll take their ships and drink our fill! Heave away, me lads, heave away, The sea’s our home, we’ll ne’er betray! Gold in our hold and rum in our veins, We’ll ride the storm through wind and rains! With sword and pistol by our side, We carve our fate on the ocean wide. Through stormy night and fiery day, A pirate’s life’s the only way! Heave away, me lads, heave away, The sea’s our home, we’ll ne’er betray! Gold in our hold and rum in our veins, We’ll ride the storm through wind and rains! No churchyard grave, no gentle bed, The sea shall keep us when we’re dead. Raise your glass and drink it down, The ocean’s call shall be our crown! Heave away, me lads, heave away, The sea’s our home, we’ll ne’er betray! Gold in our hold and rum in our veins, We’ll ride the storm through wind and rains! [Outro] (rowdy chorus fades with stomps & fiddle)
