Over deze songtekst:
Treasure Island is het bekende boek van Robert Louis Stevenson - ook vertaalde in het Nederlands uiteraard - waarin een reis wordt ondernomen om verloren piraten goud te vinden. Maar.... Treasure Island is ook de naam van een wel bekend casino in Las Vegas. In het lied vind je hints naar dat casino.
How did we come to this place and time Our lives now ruled by a mariner's rime We sold our souls to tell this tale This quest for treasure we regale With the stars in the sky our guide Voyage ever onwards Set a course to the other side Of the endless oceans blue Treasure Island Oh, the legends told of a land of rum and plunder Treasure Island On a quest for gold we'll sail the seven seas Treasure Island Oh, the legends told of a land of rum and plunder Treasure Island On a quest for gold we'll sail the seven seas I can't believe we're on our way We're going there today Yarr ahoy The mate was fixed by the bosun's pike The bosun brained with a marlinspike And cookey's throat was marked belike It had been gripped by fingers ten And there they lay all good dead men Like break o'day in a boozing ken High was the price that was paid this day We spun the wheel 'til the coffers ran dry Nevada sun was burning bare The stench of everclear filled the air With the stars in the sky our guide Voyage ever onwards Set a course to the other side Of the endless oceans blue Treasure Island Oh, the legends told of a land of rum and plunder Treasure Island On a quest for gold we'll sail the seven seas Treasure Island Oh, the legends told of a land of rum and plunder Treasure Island On a quest for gold we'll sail the seven seas I can't believe we're on our way We're going there today Fifteen men on the dead man's chest Drink and the devil had done for the rest But one man of her crew alive What put to sea was seventy-five On the endless quest So far into the west Where history and destiny collide Your luck will last forever and the truth will never die Prepare to roll the dice just one more time On the endless quest So far into the west Where history and destiny collide Your luck will last forever and the truth will never die The fates shall be eternal on your side Prepare to roll the dice just one more time With the stars in the sky our guide Voyage ever onwards Set a course to the other side Of the endless oceans blue Treasure Island Oh, the legends told of a land of rum and plunder Treasure Island On a quest for gold we'll sail the seven seas Treasure Island Oh, the legends told of a land of rum and plunder Treasure Island On a quest for gold we'll sail the seven seas I can't believe we're on our way Our destiny lies in the waves We're going there today Yarr ahoy
