Under Jolly Roger
Running Wild Lyrics


Weigh anchor, hoist the sails
Cruisin' for booty on watery trails
No exploiter we see can still sail on
Our cannons fire till his ship goes down
Fly our flag, we teach them fear
Capture them, the end is near
Firing guns they shell burn
Surrender or fight there's no return
Under Jolly Roger
Venerable scoundrels, no blood on our hands
Our engagement are tough, but only for defense
Carefully we sail around the reefs
To force those die-hards to their knees
Fly our flag, we teach them fear
Capture them, the end is near
Firing guns they shell burn
Surrender or fight there's no return
Under Jolly Roger
Coming through the waves to free all the captives
Boarding the vessels we know all the tactics
We're the menace, the curse of the sea
We pulverize the men'o'war pay or flee
Fly our flag, we teach them fear
Capture them, the end is near
Firing guns they shell burn
Surrender or fight there's no return
Under Jolly Roger

Fly our flag, we teach them fear

This is such a great track! The whole album is magnificent! Running Wild is one of those incredibly underrated bands...

Yucatan Suckaman!

I'm slowly finding out that being in a metal band and being a pirate have a lot of parallels.

Mikael Karlsson

No, pirates die but metal is eternal.

Stéphane Grenier

I don't know man, in my short experience being in a metal band mostly involved being poor, spending what little money I made on gear I'll only use a few times a year (if even that) and having a lot of people come up to you and ask if you know any Metallica riffs.

Being a pirate sounds a bit more wild.

Tyrone Peisker

Great underrated band! Love the album! Love the band! Classic!

Poderoso!

Just heard about them and don't regret it.

@Qays S I read lyrics of many of they songs and while they have many great lyrics, in many tracks words are far behind the music. It is hard to pinpoint without discussing particular songs and it depend on what expect from lyrics. When I love "Black Hand Inn" rhythms and melodies, lyrics on this album never appealed to me that much.

Qays S

@Kamil Ziemian They've got songs with spectacularly deep/interesting/creative lyrics, so not sure what you mean. Although admitadely this track is a bit "light" lyrically. But Pile of Skulls, Last of the Mohicans, The Iron Times, The War, Ballad of William Kidd, etc., are all lyrically excellent.
