Captain Kidd
Jolly Rogers Lyrics


My name is Captain Kidd as I sailed as I sailed
My name is Captain Kidd as I sailed
My name is Captain Kidd, God's laws I did forbid
And most wickedly I did as I sailed as I sailed
most wickedly I did as I sailed

I murdered William Moore as I sailed as I sailed
I murdered William Moore as I sailed
I murdered William Moore, and I left him in his gore
Thirty leagues away from shore as I sailed as I sailed
Thirty leagues away from shore as I sailed

And being crueler still as I sailed as I sailed
And being crueler still as I sailed
And being crueler still, the gunner I did kill
And his precious blood did spill as I sailed as I sailed
His precious blood did spill as I sailed

I was sick and nigh to death as I sailed as I sailed
I was sick and nigh to death as I sailed
I was sick and nigh to death and I vowed at every breath
To walk in wisdom's way as I sailed as I sailed
To walk in wisdom's way as I sailed

My repentance lasted not as I sailed as I sailed
My repentance lasted not as I sailed
My repentance lasted not my vow I soon forgot
Damnation is my lot as I sailed as I sailed
Damnation is my lot as I sailed

To execution dock I must go I must go
To execution dock I must go
Oh, to execution dock, lay my head upon the block
God's laws no more I'll mock as I sailed as I sailed
God's laws no more I'll mock as I sailed

My name was Captain Kidd as I sailed as I sailed
My name was Captain Kidd as I sailed
My name was Captain Kidd, God's laws I did forbid
And most wickedly I did as I sailed as I sailed
and most wickedly I did as I sailed

Вспомнил "Золотой жук" Эдгара По -- любимую новеллу русских читателей.

@TheJollyRogers

Замечательная история! Может, там мы найдём вдохновение для песни?

@user-if1fm9nn1l

@@TheJollyRogers ваша версия баллады о капитане Кидде нравится мне больше всех остальных. Прекрасную песню вы записали. Часто её слушаю. Моё почтение.
