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!"
