mercyful fate – fifteen men lyrics
(music: denner/lyrics: diamond)
1640. the caribbean sea, the wind was just a breeze
heading for a western sh-r-, the barque was sailing east
close hauled into the eye
the “unicorn” was riding high on the tide
and the rum went down their throats…with a twist of wine
just…after midnight, n-body saw the antigua sh-r-
just…after midnight, n-body heard the thunder roar
ohh…they were heading straight for the reefs
just…after midnight, they were caught by the storm
solo: shermann – denner
1640. the caribbean sea, the wind was not just a breeze
the captain and the crew were fighting for their lives
but they didn’t stand a chance with their drunken minds
going down…to their watery graves
going down…going down…
fifteen men and a bottle of rum
it’s the captain and the crew of the “unicorn”
listen hard on a stormy night
and you just might hear them singing that rhyme
oh yeah…a ghost that never dies
fifteen men and a bottle of rum
it’s the captain stuck in the “unicorn”
oh yeah…a ghost that never dies
it’s a warning, storm is coming, yeah, you better look out
