Pirate's Life Lyrics


Hoist the Jolly Roger, burn it on the door

Overthrow the barkeep, make him kiss the floor

Whiskey and rum start acting, fights break out, here we go

We live this life of excess

It’s what we need to be

Ale at every table, a wench to every knee

Swinging from the chandeliers, the mob beyond to tire

Unleashing on the night, set the village on fire

Roasting the farmer’s pig, give him back the head

The night has just begun, we’ll paint the town red

We live this life of excess

It’s what we need to be

Ale at every table, a wench to every knee

The mob marches on in a drunken wrath

Leaving a land debauched in it’s path

A single man begins to croon

The rest of the crew join in soon

It's a pirate’s life to plunder the sea

Do as you will take what you please

Our course is set by the breeze

The pirate’s life is the way for me

Oh… other rounds to make

Oh… other towns to take

(repeat verse1)

We live this life of excess

It’s what we need to be

Ale at every table, a wench to every knee
