Set Sail for Campo Santo Lyrics by Chris Remo

2014

[Verse 1]
There's stories told of a treasure old
It's the dream of every sailor
If Blackbeard saw this hoard, he'd weep:
"Me whole life was a failure!"
'Tis a finer jewel than Shambhala
Treasure more than El Dorado
Where the rum is good and men are free
They call it Campo Santo
[Chorus]
Yo-ho, yo-ho
Set sail for Campo Santo
If we lose our lives, will it save our souls?
Bring me home to Campo Santo
[Verse 2]
They say this land is just a tale
For which only fools have quested
They say it's God's most tainted gift
And that no man should possess it
We've heard good men have lost their lives
To the dream of Campo Santo
But give us a map and a fair strong wind
And we'll set sail on the 'morrow
[Chorus]
Yo ho, yo ho
Set sail for Campo Santo
If we lose our lives, will it save our souls?
Bury me in Campo Santo
[Verse 3]
So I take a drink as we crest the waves
On a ship with a dead man's crew
If I must kill Minos twice, I will
And I'll kill his Minotaur too
I may face me glory or me doom
But when I die, I will die free
Hang your rules and your dentist's tools
It's Campo Santo for me
[Outro]
So set sail for Campo Santo, boys
This is the life for me
