F-                         C                  F-      Eb        F –             C                       F-
Now listen, ye land lubbin’ retches, and fill up yer cups past the rim –
      F-            C        F-      Eb      F-            C            F-
to tales of high adventure, a drunken pyrate’s hymn!
          Eb                                      F
with ROBBING! Robbing the wealthy!
          Eb                                        C
And LOOTING! The corporate stores!
Eb                                             F
DRINKING! The cup never ending!
         Eb                                                         C
And WENCHING! We’re all such sweet whores!

And it’s ARR, ARR, ARR MATEY, ARR! It’s the Pyrate’s life for me!
The BOOTY, the GROG, livin’ HIGH on the HOG –
and sailin’ over the sea! Yes, sailing over the sea!

Now, grab up seven buckets, and fill ‘em with blood, for we’re out to paint this town red!
and after we’ve emptied those pails, we’ll drink from the ales of the dead!

and let me tell you of a violent sport, assailing the cargoes of kings!
For Coca, Nutmeg, and sweet Cardamom – We KILL, we KILL and we BLEED!

And it’s ARR, ARR, ARR, MATEY, ARR! It’s the pyrate’s life for me!
The BOOTY, the GROG! Livin’ HIGH on the HOG –
and sailin’ over the sea! Yes, sailing over the sea!

I once knew me a cabin boy, lean, hard, and strong, but who never tasted the grog!
Until one day he went to the tavern to drink, and now he’s singin’ this song!

And he’s down with the
with ROBBING! Robbing the wealthy!
And LOOTING! The corporate stores!
DRINKING! The cup never ending!
And WENCHING! We’re all such sweet whores!

And it’s ARR, ARR, ARR MATEY, ARR! It’s the Pyrate’s life for me!
The BOOTY, the GROG, livin’ HIGH on the HOG –
and sailin’ over the sea! Yes, sailing over the sea!
