Lyrics

[Intro]

Dead men tell no tales

[Refrain]

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me

[Verse 1]

We pillage, we plunder, we rifle and loot

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho

We kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho

[Refrain]

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me

[Verse 2]

We extort, we pilfer, we filch and sack

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho

Maraud and embezzle and even hijack

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho

[Refrain]

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me

[Verse 3]

We kindle and char, inflame and ignite

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho

We burn up the city, we're really a fright

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho

[Verse 4]

We're rascals, scoundrels, villains and knaves

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho

We're devils and black sheep, really bad eggs

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho

[Refrain]

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me

[Verse 5]

We're beggars and blighters, and ne'er do-well cads

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho

Aye, but we're loved by our mommies and dads

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho

[Refrain]

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me

[Verse 6]

We pillage, we plunder, we rifle and loot

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho

We kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho

[Refrain]

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me

[Verse 7]

We extort, we pilfer, we filch and sack

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho
