A good breakfast is by far the best way to start another pillage and plunder day And there is perhaps best breakfast than liquor? And there is maybe best liquor than rum? So I head to the hold with a satisfied smile Bringing my greetings to sobriety But I’ll be damned if some infamous rogue did not steal all the cans CHOIR: Where hath th rum gone Take out the loot right now CHOIR: Where hath th rum gone CHOIR: I wanna drink now I need to drink right now CHOIR: Where hath th rum gone Where hath th rum gone Where hath th rum gone Bring me the culprit Where hath th rum gone Where hath th rum gone No mercy upon him I’m looking for the loot throughout the ship Interrogating every man aboard But they all seem to be dry like me We may have been cursed by the gods of the sea? 24 barrels of Puerto Rican We can not have them lost in this way What would a pirate without rum? I will find all the cans CHOIR: Where hath th rum gone Take out the loot right now CHOIR: Where hath th rum gone CHOIR: I wanna drink now I need to drink right now CHOIR: Where hath th rum gone Where hath th rum gone Where hath th rum gone Bring me the culprit Where hath th rum gone Where hath th rum gone No mercy upon him Eventually I discovered that the captain wuz to blame so I had to go workin’ sober and quiet for the first time in my goddamn life — CHOIR: Where hath th rum gone Take out the loot right now CHOIR: Where hath th rum gone CHOIR: I wanna drink now I need to drink right now CHOIR: Where hath th rum gone Where hath th rum gone Where hath th rum gone Bring me the culprit Where hath th rum gone Where hath th rum gone No mercy upon him

Once again landed in Port Royal Back from adventure I’m laden with gold After unnumbered battles My poor limbs need a little of well-deserved rest Hidden in these dirty streets ye know? There’s a place where all sailors at sunset they go Entertainment for all tastes Although I must say that sweet wenches is what I prefer Ruby-red lips Sapphire blue eyes Dazzling smiles of candid pearls Amber-like skin Smooth as the jade Long blonde hairs like a cascade of gold Payin’ a small price you can choose a jewel for you Roving the seas is a job full of labors That’s why there are places like this I’ve been in a thousand of taverns and harbours But somehow at last I always come back here Welcome Welcome into the house Welcome into the house of jewelry Comin’ Comin’ into the house Comin’ into the house of jewelry A poor sailor like me Has no family or home, like a stranger in every port But I really don’t care about this Since I’ve plenty of things to do in this world Ruby-red lips Sapphire blue eyes Sweet smiles of candid pearls Amber-like skin Smooth as the jade Long blonde hairs like a cascade of gold Payin’ a small price you can choose a jewel for you Roving the seas is a job full of labors That’s why there are places like this I’ve been in a thousand of taverns and harbours But somehow at last I always come back here Welcome Welcome into the house Welcome into the house of jewelry Comin’ Comin’ into the house Comin’ into the house of jewelry Everybody’s welcome into the house Welcome into the house of jewelry Get a rich haul if you’re comin’ into the house Comin’ into the house of jewelry Roving the seas is a job full of labors That’s why there are places like this I’ve been in a thousand of taverns and harbours But somehow at last I always come back here Welcome Welcome into the house Welcome into the house of jewelry Comin’ Comin’ into the house Comin’ into the house of jewelry Everybody’s welcome into the house Welcome into the house of jewelry Get a rich haul if you’re comin’ into the house Comin’ into the house of jewelry

Anchored in the roadstead Got to clean the hull We sacked Admiral Lee’s corvette Just two nights ago Sunshine sinks behind the hills Above this haven of sea dogs Their eyes furtive and lustful stare upon us from the docks O boys the hold is packed with treasures of all sorts With silks and satins, spices, sugar and the wealth of Admiral Lee The trade wind blow hard tonight an’ the torchlits disappear The bravest will venture to shore while others remain on board A chill breeze shakes the shrouds Deadly day in Bounty Bay Hunted down by the servants of Her Majesty we are Surrounded by a bunch of thugs in an isolated bight Get ready to defend the booty, me buckos bold an’ proud An’ drink an’ sing, an’ stand an’ fight until we’re passed the night A sail in sight to the harbour mouth Admiral Lee followed us this far He intends to bring us to the Execution Dock An opponent more for us, for more fun Hunted down by the servants of Her Majesty we are Surrounded by a bunch of thugs in an isolated bight Get ready to defend the booty, me buckos bold an’ proud An’ drink an’ sing, an’ stand an’ fight until we’re passed the night In Bounty Bay we fight the pyrates To keep the loot, to keep the loot In Bounty Bay we fight the tars To avoid the noose, to avoid the noose Battle rages on And dusk turn to night The red moon is reflected on the waves of a rippled sea In Bounty Bay we fight the pyrates To keep the loot, to keep the loot In Bounty Bay we fight the tars To avoid the noose, to avoid the noose Hunted down by the servants of Her Majesty we are Surrounded by a bunch of thugs in an isolated bight Get ready to defend the booty, me buckos bold an’ proud An’ drink an’ sing, an’ stand an’ fight until we’re passed the night Hunted down by the servants of Her Majesty we are Surrounded by a bunch of thugs in an isolated bight Get ready to defend the booty, me buckos bold an’ proud An’ drink an’ sing, an’ stand an’ fight until we’re passed the night
