alestorm - keelhauled (acoustic) lyrics
[verse 1]
my friends i stand before you
to tell a truth most dire
there lurks a traitor in our midst
who hath invoked the captain’s ire
he don’t deserve no mercy
we ought to shoot him with a gun
but i am not an evil man
so first let’s have a little fun
[pre-chorus]
we’ll tie that scoundrel to a rope
and throw him overboard
drag him underneath the ship
a terrifying deadly trip
[chorus]
keelhaul that filthy landlubber
send him down to the depths below
make that b-st-rd walk the plank
with a bottle of rum and the yo-ho-yo
keelhaul that filthy landlubber
send him down to the depths below
make that b-st-rd walk the plank
with a bottle of rum and the yo-ho-yo
[verse 2]
i will not say what he has done
his sins are far to grave to tell
it’s not my place to judge a man
but for them he will burn in h-ll
the sharks will dine up on his flesh
and davy jones will have his soul
take his money and his hat
he won’t need them where he’s gonna go
[pre-chorus]
but first, let’s tie him to a rope
and throw him overboard
drag him underneath the ship
a terrifying deadly trip
[chorus]
keelhaul that filthy landlubber
send him down to the depths below
make that b-st-rd walk the plank
with a bottle of rum and the yo-ho-yo
keelhaul that filthy landlubber
send him down to the depths below
make that b-st-rd walk the plank
with a bottle of rum and the yo-ho-yo
[bridge]
[pre-chorus]
we’ll tie that scoundrel to a rope
and throw him overboard
drag him underneath the ship
a terrifying deadly trip
[outro]
keelhaul that filthy landlubber
send him down to the depths below
make that b-st-rd walk the plank
with a bottle of rum and the yo-ho-yo
keelhaul that filthy landlubber
send him down to the depths below
make that b-st-rd walk the plank
with a bottle of rum and the yo-ho-yo
