Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My friends I stand before you
To tell a truth most dire
There lurks a traitor in our midst
Who hath invoked the captain's ire
[Verse 2]
He don't deserve no mercy
We ought to shoot him with a gun
But I am not an evil man
So first let's have a little fun
[Verse 3]
We'll tie that scoundrel to a rope
And throw him overboard
Drag him underneath the ship
A terrifying deadly trip
[Verse 4]
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Send him down to the the depths below
Make that bastard walk the plank
With a bottle of rum and a yo-ho-ho
[Verse 5]
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Send him down to the the depths below
Make that bastard walk the plank
With a bottle of rum and a yo-ho-ho
[Verse 6]
I will not say what he has done
His sins are far too grave to tell
It's not my place to judge a man
But for them he will burn in hell
[Verse 7]
The sharks will dine up on his flesh
And Davy Jones will have his soul
Take his money and his hat
He won't need them where he's gonna go
[Verse 8]
But first, let's tie him to a rope
And throw him overboard
Drag him underneath the ship
A terrifying deadly trip
[Verse 9]
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Send him down to the the depths below
Make that bastard walk the plank
With a bottle of rum and a yo-ho-ho
[Verse 10]
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Send him down to the the depths below
Make that bastard walk the plank
With a bottle of rum and a yo-ho-ho
[Verse 11]
We'll tie that scoundrel to a rope
And throw him overboard
Drag him underneath the ship
A terrifying deadly trip
[Verse 12]
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Send him down to the the depths below
Make that bastard walk the plank
With a bottle of rum and a yo-ho-ho
[Verse 13]
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Send him down to the the depths below
Make that bastard walk the plank
With a bottle of rum and a yo-ho-ho
