With me blunderbuss in hand, I accost my fellow man
With a careful eye for gold & shiny things
In the wink of an eye, I'll snatch your purse & fly
All around these God-forsaken Seven Seas
When I die (When I die)
When I'm dead
Let the Good Lord show some Mercy o'er my grave
I am not an honest man, but I've done the best I can
But a Pirate's Life 'aint much for getting Saved
When the Captain took me on, though he stank of rot & rum
He swore I'd see the Wonders of the World
Now on board, as First Mate, I swear I've come to hate
All the folly I've encountered while aboard.
When I die (When I die)
When I'm dead
Let the Good Lord show some Mercy o'er my grave
I am not an honest man, but I've done the best I can
But a Pirate's Life 'aint much for getting Saved
When them wenches urge me on, I tag 'em quick and run
With all the honor any whore should right expect
I'm a Pirate, after all, with me Cannon & me Balls
So I'm sure they bid me, "Go right off to…" Heck!
When I die (When I die)
When I'm dead
Let the Good Lord show some Mercy o'er my grave
I am not an honest man, but I've done the best I can
But a Pirate's Life 'aint much for getting Saved
When I die (When I die)
When I'm dead
(Retard) Let the Good Lord show some Mercy o'er my grave…
I am not an honest man, but I've done the best I can
But a Pirate's Life 'aint much for getting Saved
No, a Pirate's Life 'aint much for getting Saved…
