lyrics

My name was Captain Kidd, when I sail'd, (when I sail'd)
And so wickedly I did, God's laws I did forbid,
And so wickedly I did, When I sail'd, (when I sail'd).
I roam'd from sound to sound, And many ships I found,
To Hell I sent them bound, When I sail'd, (when I sail'd).

Feast, the world is yours, as you sail, as you sail
Drink, your time is now, as you sail, as you sail;
Fight, and make your mark, before you lie, before you lie
Sail into the dark, before you die, before you die.

On my Galley I waged war, when I sail'd, (when I sail'd)
I murder'd William Moore, And laid him in his gore,
Not many leagues from shore, when I sail'd, (when I sail'd).
The Quedagh Merchant fell, In a sea of heavy swell,
And 40 tons I held, when I sail'd, (when I sail'd).

Feast, the world is yours, as you sail, as you sail
Drink, your time is now, as you sail, as you sail;
Fight, and make your mark, before you lie, before you lie
Sail into the dark, before you die, before you die.

I stand out in the cold, for I must die, (I must die)
Farewell to young and old, all bloody seamen bold,
You're welcome to my gold, since I must die, (I must die).
Goodbye to Lunnon town, the pretty girls all roun',
No pardon can be found, and I must die, (I must die)
Then to eternity, in hideous misery,
I curse the black night sea, for I must die, (I must die)
I curse the black night sea, for I must die.
