Fella have you heard the rumours
Somewhere in the south-west
There was a fight
A dozen of filthy looters
Raided a merchant ship in the night
In the cabin of the captain
They found his daughter
Blond with a glamorous face
With the captive, under the black flag
They sailed to Nassau without a trace
There's a gathering around the fire
One man is sitting at the burning light
He's a vagabond who cares about her
Stay awake just to be the guard
Now it doesn't matter he was a pirate
Faithless criminal who hunts for gold
It's the runaway girl who worth that
He changed the seven seas for the road
Heavy rain came
She cried in her chamber
Giving up to ever be free
Her keeper felt in love with her
Got her out and tried to flee
In the shadow of the fort
They escaped from all these
Filthy marauder scums
On a boat they reached
The shore of Ireland
Where a cart became their house
There's a gathering around the fire
One man is sitting at the burning light
He's a vagabond who cares about her
Stay awake just to be the guard
Now it doesn't matter he was a pirate
Faithless criminal who hunts for gold
It's the runaway girl who worth that
He changed the seven seas for the road
There's a gathering around the fire
One man is sitting at the burning light
He's a vagabond who cares about her
Stay awake just to be the guard
Now it doesn't matter he was a pirate
Faithless criminal who hunts for gold
It's the runaway girl who worth that
He changed the seven seas for the road
