Hoist The Colours

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 together.
Hoist the colours high.
Heave ho, thieves and beggars,
never shall we die.

Some have died
and some are alive
others sail on the sea
– with the keys to the cage...
and the Devil to pay
we lay to Fiddler's Green!

Yo, ho, haul together.
Hoist the colours high.
Heave ho, thieves and beggars,
never shall we die.

The bell has been raised
from its watery grave...
Hear its sepulchral tone.
A call to all,
pay heed the squall
and turn your sail to home!

Yo, ho, haul together.
Hoist the colours high.
Heave ho, thieves and beggars,
never shall we die
