The O'Reillys and the Paddyhats - Pirates And Privateers
текст песни

If you’ve heard about us
You’ll better be gone
When horizons are covered in smoke
The beat of our cannons and gunpowder smell
Lingering on like the perfume of hell
Not sailing for a crown
Never homeward bound
‘til the tides decide about fate
May the wind be at our backs
There ain’t no coming back
Always three sheets to the wind
Hiding our fear riding the waves
We are pirates and privateers
Being at mercy of the devil’s grace
We are pirates and privateers
Our crew is as close as forgotten families
Scurvy and heat are the worst enemies
The sea tells it’s tale of words too far from sane
Only rum in our throats that might ease the pain
But we are sure
There’s no happy end
For a buccaneer like me
What’s behind the edge of the world
Could it set my soul free
