♪
Summer of 1720
I found my call as a pirate of the sea
Feared as any man and brave as can be
A deadly pirate boy
Ah, I plundered and murdered
And raided the sea
I ransacked farms on the isle of Haiti
I fired my pistol mercilessly
Oh how savagery suited me
But I was tired of bluffing the lads
Tired of living behind a mask
Tired of hiding my love for Jack
Oh, to just be me
So I gathered my courage
And stood on the deck
I tore my shirt and I bore my breasts
I said, "Fight me, drown me, cut my neck
But I'll die as Anne Bonny"
Oh I'll tell you a tale of a pirate queen
A she-wolf who reigned the Caribbean Sea
With a pistol-a-ready and a cutlass keen
The villainous, infamous
Anne Bonny

And so I held my breath
My fists clenched
And I caught Jack's eye
Nervously holding his head
Then a voice from the back
I heard someone laugh
Then two
Then three
Then four, maybe more
It became a roar
And Jack was laughing too
He said, "My darling, look at you
You're a pirate and you're home"
I'm home
No longer alone
I'm home
Oh I'll tell you a tale of a pirate queen
A she-wolf who reigned the Caribbean Sea
With a pistol-a-ready and a cutlass keen
