Her name was «Sally the curse» she was the queen of the ocean The biggest ship that I have ever seen She was faster than the wind and higer than a mountain And was steered by the devil’s own sons
They were forty-seven men of the most brave and drunken sailors Who feared no storm, no rain, no huricane Beware and be on the alert when their ship comes to your harbor And the crew take walls of your town
Angels play on harps in heaven And they drop their pants in hell So tell me where would you go
So they hoisted their flag And turned the rudder round For to street their ship straight back to hell
Well robbed one hundred banks and one hundred cargo vessels They capsized ever ship that crossed their way They don’t fallow any rules they’re damned fuckin’ outlaws And their captain’s the most wicked of them all
Well, they drunk the finest wine they’ve got tons of the best whiskey Thousand barrels of portes and rum They got cigars, They got gin, They got jewels, Gold and diamonds And those diamonds shine as the sun
Angels play on harps in heaven And they drop their pants in hell So tell me where would you go
So they hoisted their flag And turned the rudder round For to street their ship straight back to hell
They have sailed from New-York via Cape Town to Australia They have sailed round the whole fuckin’ world They have been to hell and back and ride at anchor in heaven And they’ve seen the prettiest girls of the world
And one day they’ll hang’em all for piracy and murder Or they’ll shoot’em at the wall of your town Then Hell open up it’s gates and the devil call for dinner To welcome back his forty-seven sons
