Track 6 - Sea Doggin' - The Legend Of Salty Jim

lyrics

We sail at dawn so enjoy this night
Of women, beer and drunken fights
The night is young so drink away
Laugh and dance and sing
Of former days

There's not one thing I can't remember
Of the times we’ve sailed across the seas
And it's by these age old tradewinds
That we plundered in this age of piracy
So come on in and come on all
Get the beers in spend the gold
Find yourselves a table
For you all know what to say

Bring a beer to me wench
And before I think my
hands are firmly clenched
Around her body
"DRINK HER DOWN"
I drink her down
I drink her down

I see the glint of silver from the cutpurse
As he tries to steal me groats
So I plunge my fist into his face
And draw my knife across his throat
His body crumples to the ground
The bar erupts, the walls crash down
My sword is drawn and ready
For the night has just begun

And with a crack and a slash
My sword held them back
As it cut through their faces with ease
And with broadaxe and sword
The crew took on the horde
Of blackguards, rapscallions and thieves
The Inn turned ablaze
and left charred remains
Of those that could not flee the fire
So we fled from the scene
With the highest esteem
For we knew that our bounties grew higher

Drink, Drink it down
Make your Captain proud
and sing...
