Pirates of the Dawn

[Verse] From the shores of Zanzibar To the Straits of Malacca Sailing through the morning star With a heart of blackened lacquer [Chorus] Yo-ho-ho and a flag of red On the Indian Ocean we make our bed With the wind and the waves we are fed By the tales of the pirates dead [Verse 2] Batten down the hatches boys Raise the Jolly Roger high Cannon fire makes a noise As we shout into the sky [Chorus] Yo-ho-ho and a flag of red On the Indian Ocean we make our bed With the wind and the waves we are fed By the tales of the pirates dead [Verse 3] Pearls and spices in our hold Rubies and the finest gold Stories from the depths retold In the nights so dark and cold [Chorus] Yo-ho-ho and a flag of red On the Indian Ocean we make our bed With the wind and the waves we are fed By the tales of the pirates dead [Verse 4] Through the storms and squalls so fierce Charting paths with a weathered map Enemies we'll board and pierce With a saber and a hearty clap [Bridge] From Bombay to Calicut Where the sea is deep and blue We'll fight till our sails are shut With a crew so brave and true [Chorus] Yo-ho-ho and a flag of red On the Indian Ocean we make our bed With the wind and the waves we are fed By the tales of the pirates dead [Chorus] Yo-ho-ho and a flag of red On the Indian Ocean we make our bed With the wind and the waves we are fed By the tales of the pirates dead
