lyrics

I walked upon a ship one day, black flags upon it flew
An elder stopped and goaded me, son who the fuck are you
I said I need to catch a break, show me the pirate way
I’ll make you a pirate, follow me

I’m Captain O’Malley – follow me!

First night we set to Vale’s cove to practice what he preached
A dozen ships or more were there and several more had beached
Like the tide the mood had change, the old dog tripped and fell
For his name was Captain Boone O’Malley and his life’s a living hell

I looked him square in the eye and said, ‘I don’t know how to chantey, alright?’
He said dear boy don’t be a fool, it’s all in life we do

The moon looked down in disbelief, stars avert their gaze
Chantey long into the night, we plunder tomorrow…

He said go grab your boarding axe, I’ll teach you how to plunder
Keep your feet steady now, be careful not to chunder
Fill your pockets full of loot, don’t forget the gold
Split your share evenly, it’s in the Pirates code

I looked him square in the eye and said, ‘I don’t know how to chantey, alright?’
He said dear boy don’t be a fool, it’s all in life we do

The moon looked down in disbelief, stars avert their gaze
Chantey long into the night, we plunder tomorrow…

O’Malley’s time will now end, he’s had his last day of glory
‘Go finish what I’ve begun, you’re the ships’ captain now’
Run this ship and all its loot,
Plunder nations, plunder fortunes
Now one last time my dear boy,
show me how you how chantey
