The Jolly Rogers

The Jolly Rogers - Captain Morgan lyrics

Your rating:

Eight months out, nothing to show
The crew's morale at an all-time low
When we board into Port Royale for repairs

The captain went ashore for news
While we mended sails with the other crews
And talked about our sad state of affairs

The captain, he came bounding back 
Said "Boys, there's no time to unpack
'Cause we're about to join our pirate fleet"

This news should have been met with cheers
But the crew was plagued with doubt and fears
So our captain said without missing a beat:

"Don't avoid it, don't fear it
Embrace your pirate spirit
We sail with Captain Morgan tonight
For adventure and glory
And an unforgettable story
We sail with Captain Morgan tonight!

For Maracaibo we'll set sail
And there is no way we can fail
We'll have us a navy all our own

Like Porto Bello long before
We will sneak ourselves to shore
And we'll be rich before we come back home"

This got some cheers but not a lot
They knew the Cartagena plot
And all the pirates there that met their end

"Yes" he says "there's risk involved
But every problem can be solved
And we'll end up with more cash than we can spend

Don't avoid it, don't fear it
Embrace your pirate spirit
We sail with Captain Morgan tonight
For adventure and glory
And an unforgettable story
We sail with Captain Morgan tonight!"

At last the crew they all agreed
As fear cannot win over greed
And we got our ship all ready and primed

We set the sails and sharpened swords
We pulled the anchor and wound the course
There was no way that we would lose this time

With that our whole crew was met
Pledges made, and routes were set
Henry Morgan said let not a thing go wrong

And as the fleet was heading out
You could hear our whole crew shout
"Listen up ye scurvy dogs and sing along:

Don't avoid it, don't fear it
Embrace your pirate spirit
We sail with Captain Morgan tonight
For adventure and glory
And an unforgettable story
We sail with Captain Morgan tonight!"

Don't avoid it, don't fear it
Embrace your pirate spirit
We sail with Captain Morgan tonight
For adventure and glory
And an unforgettable story
We sail with Captain Morgan tonight!
We sail with Captain Morgan tonight!"
