LadyBarbossa Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I think someone posted them somewhere or gave a link... I tried looking for it (no, I don't look desperatedly hard for things). Anyone know the correct lyrics for it? ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!

Mary Diamond Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Found these online, but I don't have the link anymore ~ LOVED it from the minute I heard it. Hoist the Colors The king and his men stole the queen from her bed and bound her in her Bones. The seas be ours and by the powers where we will we'll roam. Yo, ho, haul together, hoist the Colors high. Heave ho, thieves and beggars, never shall we die. Some men have died and some are alive and others sail on the sea – with the keys to the cage... and the Devil to pay we lay to Fiddler's Green. The bell has been raised from it's watery grave... Do you hear it's sepulchral tone? We are a call to all, pay head the squall and turn your sail toward home. Yo, ho, haul together, hoist the Colors high... Heave ho, thieves and beggars, never shall we die Oooh, shiny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
