about

A neo-celtic folk song centered on storytelling through the device of a sea shanty.

lyrics

There was a fair and feathered maid
who trode upon the seas
and she swore up'oon her weddin' dress
that n'ary a love have she
quoth she 'my one and oonly loove
hath died beneath the waves
to bring for us a bounty
to have our weddin' day'

so she took to piratin'
a fierce sea captain she
and though she pillaged
and plundered
oh nary a love had she
a shipwrecked man wooed
for her hand, and with a laugh
quoth she 'I s'pose if he'd come
courtin', I'd wed the pirate king'

In the morrow sunlight
he strode aboard the deck
she did not recognize him
by the feather in his cap
nor the pistol by his side
nor the crew at his back
he said 'I am the Pirate King
here to fetch my prize, I believe
just yesterday you agreed to
be my bride'
