Lyrics

[Verse 1]

When the captain was a young boy

He wanted to sail around the world

(That's the life for me)

(H-ho, livin' on the sea)

Spirit of a sailor

Sailing all around the globe

(Round and round)

(I'm a buccaneer)

(Whoa, I'll acknowledge no frontier)

[Verse 2]

I remember you by

Thunderclap in the sky

Lightning flash, tempers flare

Round Cape Horn if you dare

[Verse 3]

I just spent six months in a leaky boat

Lucky just to keep afloat

[Verse 4]

Aotearoa

(Oh, look, there's New Zealand)

You rugged individual

Listen like a pearl

(Ooh, so shiny, whoa)

At the bottom of the world

(oh, down under, yeah, whoa)

The tyranny of distance

(Such a long way)

It didn't stop the buccaneer

(So why should it stop me? Whoa)

(I'm sailing to be free)

[Verse 5]

Ah, come on, all you lads

Let's forget and forgive

There's a world to explore

Tales to tell back on shore

[Verse 6]

I just spent six months in a leaky boat

Six months in a leaky boat

[Verse 7]

Come on now, me hearties

Let's do a pirate dance

Yo, ho, ho

Oh, bend your knees now

That's right

Ho, ho, ho

Now you're really dancin'

Oh, welcome, me hearties

[Verse 8]

Ah, come on, all you lads

Let's forget and forgive

There's a world to explore

Tales to tell back on shore

[Verse 9]

I just spent six months in a leaky boat

Nothing to a leaky boat
