| O                                                                    O |

|                           The Pirate Shanty                            |
|                     ------------------------------                     |
|                                                                        |
|                                                                        |
|             If I was not a pirate, I'd dearly long to be,              |
|              Sailing by the stars across the seven seas,               |
|             Living with no earthly cares, my mates and me              |
|             The envy of all worldly men, who are not free.             |
|                                                                        |
|         A song to sing for beggars, a song to sing for saints,         |
|    A song to sing for wealthy men all wrapped and bound in chains!     |
|              Our treasure's not in gold, or in our piety.              |
|       Our wealth is in an answered call, the longing of the sea!       |
|                                                                        |
|           Stormy oceans carry us to lands we've never known,           |
|         To mysteries and buried secrets from the tales of old.         |
|    So hoist the sail and raise the flag, we do not stop for night.     |
|     We'll ride the wild winds and waves until the morning's light!     |
|                                                                        |
|    In smuggler's caves and tavern halls, we live by no man's rules.    |
|       We fly the colors of the living, free and proud and true!        |
|            We set out on the ocean blue to escape tyranny.             |
|       We'll keep our merry hearts alive so long we roam the sea.       |
|                                                                        |
|      A man once walked along the shore, and called he out to me,       |
|            "I see you are a fisherman, a lover of the sea.             |
|     I know this world's a wretched place, but if you'll follow me      |
|       I'll take all of your burdens... and pirates we shall be!"       |
|                                                                        |
|                             Yo ho, yo ho!                              |
|                                                                        |
