[Music: Kasparek, Lyrics: Finlay/Kasparek]



[1. Verse]

Man or boy - we'll fight all as one

Bending the rules - it's the call of the wild

Last resort - to be shot down in pains

Playing your very last card



[Prechorus:]

Hoist up the mainbrace and fasten the sails

Crowsnest is screaming for shore

Ready the rum that is stored in the hold

Bringing what we need and more



[Chorus:]

Where the streets have no name

Where the devil's in all men

If you knew what was a slain

Pay or flee in Tortuga Bay



[2. Verse]

Fight to death - games that men play

Flashing of steel and the clash of the sword

Last breath - the kill of the day

Proving what all men must fear



[Prechorus:]

Hoist up the mainbrace and fasten the sails

Crowsnest is screaming for shore

Ready the rum that is stored in the hold

Bringing what we need and more



[3. Verse]

Live by stealth - cover your track

Enemies scuttled but who needs to see

No escape - knife in your back

Proving what all men must fear



[Prechorus:]

Hoist up the mainbrace and fasten the sails

Crowsnest is screaming for shore

Ready the rum that is bound up in bales

Bringing what we need and more



[Chorus:]

Where survival's the game

Where you fight for your freedom

If you knew what was a slain

Pay or flee in Tortuga Bay
