How to be a Pirate Lyrics by Storm Seeker

Guns Don’t Cry

2020

[Verse 1]
So you want to be a pirate
Not sure what you must do?
Then listen close and stand up straight
Cause I got something for you
First, you need a parrot
And a lumby bumby crew
Then grab a pistol and grab a sword
Some nice old cannons too
And then you steal the ship
Whatever there may be
We’re going on for treasure
And soon you’ll see

[Chorus]
Wooden barque through the endless seas
Tons of rum, bring the booze to me
We’re on a ship, to the winds we bow
All renegades we’ll overthrow
Wooden barque through the endless seas
Tons of rum, bring the booze to me
My fate revealed, in sail and keel
For this, my friend, is how to be a pirate

[Verse 2]
You have a hook of gold
Where once your bloody hand’s been
And if you bastards being bold
I’ll haunt you till the end scene
Wagons are for cowards
And horses for the weak
A sail above and the wooden barque
Is all I need

[Chorus]
Wooden barque through the endless seas
Tons of rum, bring the booze to me
We’re on a ship, to the winds we bow
All renegades we’ll overthrow
Wooden barque through the endless seas
Tons of rum, bring the booze to me
My fate revealed, in sail and keel
For this, my friend, is how to be a pirate

[Bridge]
Ascended from rigger
Now a nautical master
Dagger, a trigger
Are my death-cry caster
Ascended from rigger
Now a nautical master
Dagger, a trigger
Are my death-cry caster

[Chorus]
Wooden barque through the endless seas
Tons of rum, bring the booze to me
We’re on a ship, to the winds we bow
All renegades we’ll overthrow
Wooden barque through the endless seas
Tons of rum, bring the booze to me
My fate revealed, in sail and keel
For this, my friend, is how to be a pirate
