My Marie

I spent a lifetime in pauper's clothes
Taking all of the grief I could bare
Earthly fortune held no appeal
Before my Marie
She came to love me as no one would
Love fanned my ambition for fame
Her Dad told me I'd have to make good
For my Marie
I took to the Sea, stealing my way all around the world
To make a fortune for my Marie
And I'd always say, "This fortune is for the girl"
My Marie
I'd quite intended an honest man's trade
But the mercantile life never paid
So took to Pirate what others made
For my Marie
Thirty galleons and many a year
Each man on my crew treated fair
I sailed for home with a treasure & gold
For my Marie
I took to the Sea, stealing my way all around the world
To make a fortune for my Marie
And I'd always say, "This fortune is for the girl"
My Marie
I took to the Sea, stealing my way all around the world
To make a fortune for my Marie
Lost to a storm, only several miles from shore
I would not make it home for my Marie
