Buccaneer Songtext
Sixteen men on a dead man′s chest
Will I see you tomorrow
Sixteen men and I'll see the rest
I won′t beg, steal or borrow
I won't beg, steal or borrow
Well we sailed into the beach
And we were just out of reach
Of the forty-second squadron
When I heard the captain screech
Get down on the sand
Don't you waste no time
′Cause we gotta get that gold inside
Before it turns after nine
And the Buccaneer said I′ll see you dead
I'll see you swinging from the yardarm
The buccaneer sang in a nasal twang
There′s enough gold here to start on
There's enough gold to get high on
Well the Captain he′d been told
Where they hid away the gold
And he told us to go dig it up
So that he could get it sold
But somebody had taken it
Before his very eyes
And he turned around and looked at me
And much to my surprise
And the Buccaneer said I'll see you dead
I′ll see you swinging from the yardarm
The buccaneer sang in a nasal twang
There's enough gold here to start on
There's enough gold to get high on
Save me! Whoa, oh, oh, save me
Save me from
The Buccaneer
Save me! Whoa, oh, oh, save me
Save me from
The Buccaneer
Well I had to get away
So I swam into the bay
And I could hear him coming up
And I could hear him say
When I get hold of you
You won′t even cry
′Cause I'll string you from the yardarm
And all you′ll do is die
Well they got me on the deck
Put the rope around my neck
And I could feel the sweat break out
And I could feel it stick
But the Royal Navy frigate came
And rescued me at last
She put one across the bow
And fired one into the mast
And the Buccaneer said I'll see you dead
I′ll see you swinging from the yardarm
The buccaneer sang in a nasal twang
There's enough gold here to start on
There′s enough gold to get high on
And the Buccaneer said I'll see you dead
I'll see you swinging from the yardarm
The buccaneer sang in a nasal twang
There′s enough gold here to start on
There′s enough gold to get high on
Will I see you tomorrow
Sixteen men and I'll see the rest
I won′t beg, steal or borrow
I won't beg, steal or borrow
Well we sailed into the beach
And we were just out of reach
Of the forty-second squadron
When I heard the captain screech
Get down on the sand
Don't you waste no time
′Cause we gotta get that gold inside
Before it turns after nine
And the Buccaneer said I′ll see you dead
I'll see you swinging from the yardarm
The buccaneer sang in a nasal twang
There′s enough gold here to start on
There's enough gold to get high on
Well the Captain he′d been told
Where they hid away the gold
And he told us to go dig it up
So that he could get it sold
But somebody had taken it
Before his very eyes
And he turned around and looked at me
And much to my surprise
And the Buccaneer said I'll see you dead
I′ll see you swinging from the yardarm
The buccaneer sang in a nasal twang
There's enough gold here to start on
There's enough gold to get high on
Save me! Whoa, oh, oh, save me
Save me from
The Buccaneer
Save me! Whoa, oh, oh, save me
Save me from
The Buccaneer
Well I had to get away

There′s enough gold to get high on
And the Buccaneer said I'll see you dead
I'll see you swinging from the yardarm
The buccaneer sang in a nasal twang
There′s enough gold here to start on
There′s enough gold to get high on
