lyrics

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
