Jolly Roger

E
(slight E/F for pirate riff)
In days of old when ships were bold just like the men who sailed them
And if they showed us disrespect we tied them up and flailed them
Often in the low degree and often men of steel
They’d make you walk the plank alone or haul you round the keel

[Chorus]
Hoist the Jolly Roger (2x)
It’s your money that we want and your money we shall have

[Whistle verse]
[Chorus]
Hoist the Jolly Roger (2x)
It’s your money that we want and your money we shall have

[Key change]
Of all the pirates on the sea the worst of them was Blackbeard
So damnable a face from hell he was the one they most feared
Any man who sailed with him was taking quite a chance
He’d hang them from the gallows just to see if they could dance

[Chorus]
Hoist the Jolly Roger (2x)
It’s your money that we want and your money we shall have
E
