Paroles de The Pirate Song

Something like bold scenery
Painted with fine oils
Cargo ships and pirate blades
Bringing home (the) spoils
drunking (*standing) tired and wide awake
Dodging serpents tails
Stand up, time to hoist the sails up
Here come all the big ships
Racing through the wind
Hurry up, come back when the time?s right
We'll be like the shark's bite
Back to bite again
again
Heading north we saw the fields,
Coastline tinted grey
There she stood her dress pure white
Her lantern lights were eight
Soon my wounds were tended too
And mom brought back today
Stand up, time to hoist the sails up...
Here come all the big ships
Racing through the wind
Hurry up, come back when the time?s right
We'll be like the shark's bite
Back to bite again
agin Like a band of gentlemen
With one less to forgive
Stand up. time to hoist the sails up...
Here come all the big ships
Racing through the wind
Hurry up, come back when the time?s right
We'll be like the shark's bite
Back to bite again
back again
Like a vintage Beaujolais
empty lingering taste
Longing for another sip
Just to feel the chase
On the rocks in Trinidad
It was good to see your smiling face
Stand up. time to hoist the sails up...
Here come all the big ships
Racing through the wind
Hurry up, come back when the time?s right
We'll be like the shark's bite
Back to bite again
Stand up. time to hoist the sails up...
Here come all the big ships
Racing through the wind
Hurry up, come back when the time?s right
We'll be like the shark's bite
Back to bite again
again....
