Letra
0:24Though you see me now the mere ghost of a man
0:26I once had the heart of a lion
0:29Commanding my ship between many a shore
0:31The ol' jolly roger a flyin'
0:34Mine was a name that put fear into men
0:37And regret into plenty o' lasses
0:40Lo how I wish I could take back those days
0:42As I stare at these empty beer glasses
0:45I think of the times past when I had it all
0:47I toyed with men's wives and their daughters
0:50And in my pursuit of this ill gotten wealth
0:53I stabbed and I slashed and I slaughtered
0:55And for what
0:56Hey
0:57The men that I've fought
0:58Are matched by the number of women I've bought
1:01And for what
1:01Hey
1:02I've killed and I've shot
1:03And reddened the cold tears of children with blood
1:06And if I could go back and make my amends
1:09I'd make all those mistakes again
1:11And kill every last one of those bastards my friend
1:35My ship was the last sight that many would see
1:38As we narrowed the gap with our quarry
1:41Sound of the cannons and splintering wood
1:43Did herald our pass into glory
1:46We seized all the bounty and scuppered the ship
1:49Our hearts hadn't time for no wounded
1:52I took my share and the crew got the rest
1:54And on into port we did bound it
1:57Life has many pleasures and we had our fill
2:00Of food and of wenches and beer
2:02When we tired of the port or had drunken it dry
2:05The time to set sail had come near
2:07And for what hey
2:09We heed no law
2:10The other man suffers so we can have more
2:13And for what hey
2:14We lived every day
2:15The noose of the hangman a hairsbreadth away
2:18And if I could go back and make my amends
2:21I'd make all those mistakes again
2:23And kill every last one of those bastards my friend
3:09Oh I have seen wonders you never have dreamed
3:12And taken my fair share I must say
3:14Holds full of booty I happily seized
3:17From crews who would not see a new day
3:19Spanish gold came and went and gemstones were sold
3:22And I knew more lay on the horizon
3:25Yet the beer was too good and gals were too sweet
3:27And now in my old age it's gone
3:30These memories were bought with the lives of good men
3:33A price that I paid without scruple
3:35So many so suffered so I could get drunk
3:38And swagger from brothel to brothel
3:41Now for what hey
3:42It's been many years
3:43The screams of the vanquished still ring in my ears
3:46But for what hey
3:47I've blood on my hands
3:49I wait for my place in the halls of the damned
3:52And if I could go back and make my amends
3:54I'd make all those mistakes again
3:57I'd kill every last one of those bastards
3:59My friends
Though you see me now the mere ghost of a man I once had the heart of a lion Commanding my ship between many a shore The ol' jolly roger a flyin' Mine was a name that put fear into men And regret into plenty o' lasses Lo how I wish I could take back those days As I stare at these empty beer glasses I think of the times past when I had it all I toyed with men's wives and their daughters And in my pursuit of this ill gotten wealth I stabbed and I slashed and I slaughtered And for what Hey The men that I've fought Are matched by the number of women I've bought And for what Hey I've killed and I've shot And reddened the cold tears of children with blood And if I could go back and make my amends I'd make all those mistakes again And kill every last one of those bastards my friend My ship was the last sight that many would see As we narrowed the gap with our quarry Sound of the cannons and splintering wood Did herald our pass into glory We seized all the bounty and scuppered the ship Our hearts hadn't time for no wounded I took my share and the crew got the rest And on into port we did bound it Life has many pleasures and we had our fill Of food and of wenches and beer When we tired of the port or had drunken it dry The time to set sail had come near And for what hey We heed no law The other man suffers so we can have more And for what hey We lived every day The noose of the hangman a hairsbreadth away And if I could go back and make my amends I'd make all those mistakes again And kill every last one of those bastards my friend Oh I have seen wonders you never have dreamed And taken my fair share I must say Holds full of booty I happily seized From crews who would not see a new day Spanish gold came and went and gemstones were sold And I knew more lay on the horizon Yet the beer was too good and gals were too sweet And now in my old age it's gone These memories were bought with the lives of good men A price that I paid without scruple So many so suffered so I could get drunk And swagger from brothel to brothel Now for what hey It's been many years The screams of the vanquished still ring in my ears But for what hey I've blood on my hands I wait for my place in the halls of the damned And if I could go back and make my amends I'd make all those mistakes again I'd kill every last one of those bastards My friends
