Where Hath Th' Rum Gone?

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

House Of Jewelry

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

Drinkin’ slow, drinkin’ fast
Drinkin’ first, drinkin’ last
Drinkin’ low, drinkin’ high
All the day, all the night
In the storm, in the sun
From the barrel of a gun
On the deck, above the mast
Drink it while it last
Grog Jolly Grog
Grog Jolly Grog
Grog Jolly Grog
Tomorrow we’ll be sober
Grog Jolly Grog
Grog Jolly Grog
Grog Jolly Grog
Come pass the bottle ‘round
Drinkin’ slow, drinkin’ fast
Drinkin’ first, drinkin’ last
Drinkin’ low, drinkin’ high
In the storm, in the sun
From the barrel of a gun
On the deck, above the mast
Drink it while it last
A toast with yer old mates
The cup upside down in the mouth
And get yourself a hearty laugh
Yahahahahaaah
By the sea, on the land
While you seat, while you stand
Grog is pyrate’s best friend
Drink before it ends
I’v a-spent all my life goin’ round
Across the seven briny seas
And I don’t give a damn when I drink me grog
All the day, all the night
Raise your glasses in the sky
Grog Jolly Grog

Deadly Day In Bounty Bay
08:34
|

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
