| Composition Info: | LYRICS: 1. Oh, better far to live and die Under the brave black flag I fly, Than play a sanctimonious part, With a pirate head and a pirate heart. Away to the cheating world go you, Where pirates all are well-to-do; But I'll be true to the song I sing, And live and die a Pirate King. For I am a Pirate King! And it is, it is a glorious thing To be a Pirate King! For I am a Pirate King! Chorus. You are! Hurrah for our Pirate King! King. And it is, it is a glorious thing To be a Pirate King. Chorus. It is! Hurrah for our Pirate King! King & Chorus. Hurrah for the/our Pirate King! 2. When I sally forth to seek my prey I help myself in a royal way. I sink a few more ships, it's true, Than a well-bred monarch ought to do; But many a king on a first-class throne, If he wants to call his crown his own, Must manage somehow to get through More dirty work than ever I do, For I am a Pirate King! And it is, it is a glorious thing To be a Pirate King! For I am a Pirate King! Chorus. You are! Hurrah for the Pirate King! King. And it is, it is a glorious thing To be a Pirate King. Chorus. It is! Hurrah for our Pirate King! King & Chorus. Hurrah for the/our Pirate King! |
