the jolly rogers - secrets of blackbeard lyrics

Loading...

so you want to know the secrets of blackbeard?
and why he is the one that was so feared?
i alone know the tale
and if you buy me an ale
then any doubts you had will soon be cleared

young teach was a sailor like many
but he had more ambition than twenty
one night he made a deal
and with that his fate was sealed
and from then on he was feared more than any

we dropped anchor where two currents crossed
a place where many a ship had been lost
as we lowered the longboat
my heart was in my throat
as i worried what this cursed trip might cost

teach got out and said you should wait here
and i watched him until he disappeared
he walked away from the light
swallowed up by the night
and a great wall of fire then appeared

the flames climbed high and slowly they burned down
and the waves were now the only sound
then teach reappeared
with a long black smoking beard
and said “we’re off, for now, we’re glory bound”
from that moment his legend just grew
feared by so many and known by so few
we sank ships new and old
and we bathed in the gold
and the world feared blackbeard and his crew

there were pirates more cruel and more mean
who stole so much gold, ’twas obscene
did you ever wonder why
the fame went when they died
while blackbeard’s fame grew bigger than it had been

the contract he signed that night was wrong
sold his soul so his name would live on
he got his fortune and his fame
and we all know his name
even though blackbeard is now long gone
even though blackbeard is now long gone
even though blackbeard is now long gone
