"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 hands
Hoist the colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die
Yo-ho, haul together,
Hoist the colours high,
Heave ho, thieves and beggars,
Never shall we die !
Some men have died,
And some are alive,
And others sail on the sea,
With the keys to the cage
And the devil to pay,
We lay to Fiddler's Green !
The bell has been raised,
From its watery grave
Do you hear its sepulchral tone ?
We are a call to all,
Pay heed the squall,
And turn your sail toward home !
Yo-ho haul, together,
Hoist the colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars,
Never shall we die !"
