Tekst piosenki '14 Years on a Pirate Ship' wykonawcy Musical Blades

I have fourteen years on a pirate ship, a veteran if you please, boy
I drink with the devil and be damned with the rest, it's my call to the sea.
Oh for fourteen years I've been all alone, but in good company
And it's fourteen more that I will roam, fulfill my destiny

And it's row (HEAVE HO), me hearties row (HEY)
(Way back, heave ho, we'll cross the bloody shoals!)
I tell ya row, me hearties row, from Spain to the Virgin Islands

Well I do what I want and I take what I like, I guess that's who I am, boy
I live for the moment and be damned with the rest, it's here I make my stand
My sovereignty I owe to the one that me come aboard
And sometimes I regret that I killed that man

But not very often
No, not very often

And it's row (HEAVE HO), me hearties row (HEY)
(Way back, heave ho, we'll cross the bloody shoals!)
I tell ya row, me hearties row, from Spain to the Virgin Islands

Well for fourteen years I've seen my share of bloodshed and disease, boy
But a night on the shore with a strumpet I know revives my sanity
Oh for fourteen years I've had one goal, to see all I could see
And we'll sink those ships that slow us down

And relieve them of their booty
Yea, that's right, mate

And it's row (Heave ho), me hearties row (Hey)
(Way back, heave ho, we'll cross the bloody shoals!)
I tell ya row, me hearties row, from Spain to the Virgin Islands

I've sung every song that there is to sing, that's sang about the sea
And I've crossed paths with many worthless folk, including kings and queens
Oh in fourteen years I'll end my wrath, my freedom may be won and I'll sail home

(With a hold full of treasure and a brand new song!)
(ROW - ROW - ROW - ROW)

And it's row (HEAVE HO), me hearties row (HEY)
(Way back, heave ho, we'll cross the bloody shoals!)
I tell ya row, me hearties row, from Spain to the Virgin Islands
