Down Amongst The Dead Men
No light pierces these murky depths
Where my bones are laid to rest
Lived by violence, Captained me ship
'twas sunk by the bloody British
Laid a trap to end me days
Came at us cannons blazing
Boarded us, 'twas too many
Even for pirates fierce as us
Killed us all and sank me ship
And here I rest forever
Where my bones are laid to rest
Lived by violence, Captained me ship
'twas sunk by the bloody British
Laid a trap to end me days
Came at us cannons blazing
Boarded us, 'twas too many
Even for pirates fierce as us
Killed us all and sank me ship
And here I rest forever
