In those verses of the Bible
A message was concealed
And soon for John
The secret was revealed
Deep in a Castle well the treasure could be found
Blackbeard's diamond fourteen fathoms down

"Have a care, have a care, have a care
'Twas evilly come by"

Though running as an outlaw 
With a price upon his head
To his darling Grace
He had to go instead
To tell her of his love and all the riches he would bring
With Blackbeard's diamond and buy her a wedding ring

"Have a care, have a care, have a care
'Twas evilly come by"
