Since I had dipped my hands in muddy water
It was better being a commander than a common man
Now I live my days loyal to the brethren's code
Got nothing to lose
Just the chance to end my days on the hangman's noose
Acting fast and wild, we give no quarter
Damnation to him who ever lived to wear a halter
Ruthless and cruel, inspiring fear to make them fall
Defiance of death hoisted in our flag
And when the time comes for me to face
The gallows end
These words I'll say
A short life
At the end of the day, we become a legend
A short life
And a merry I say!
A short life
At the end of the day, we become a legend
A short life
And a merry I say!
Yes! I do heartily repent
I repent that I had not done more mischief
And I'm extremely sorry
That you aren't hanged as well as we!
Now the time is near
The noose is waiting for my neck
We'll proudly hang at the execution dock
Still I'm ready to pay
The price to have a pirate life
But my name shall live forevermore... forevermore!
A short life
At the end of the day, we become a legend
A short life
And a merry I say!
A short life
At the end of the day, we become a legend
A short life
And a merry I say!
