Run out the guns, boys! I'll serve no man but me
Run out the guns, boys! Live Pirate and die free
We'll not bend a knee to anyone, nor cower to their will
Grab your cutlass, load your cannons, fire your shot and give'em hell!
The governor offered amnesty, if we would only stop
We should offer him the same me boys, and he can just piss off!
For them Privateers and Corsairs have joined our noble cause
Oppose us and you'll find your grave at the bottom of this pond
Run out the guns, boys! I'll serve no man but me
Run out the guns, boys! Live Pirate and die free
We'll not bend a knee to anyone, nor cower to their will
Grab your cutlass, load your cannons, fire your shot and give'em hell!
You Pirates should embrace the law, then I'll let you live
Said he'd give us land, (no he won't) I wouldn't take it if he did
His days on earth are numbered, I'll see him when he sleeps
His death will be on my hands mates, and no one will weep
Run out the guns, boys! I'll serve no man but me
Run out the guns, boys! Live Pirate and die free
We'll not bend a knee to anyone, nor cower to their will
Grab your cutlass, load your cannons, fire your shot and give'em hell!
I've been to Spain I've been to France, I've killed a man or two
I'll never let no English dog tell me what I can and cannot do
So take your filthy pardon and your condescending gloat
My cutlass sings for freedom as it slides across your throat
Run out the guns, boys! I'll serve no man but me
Run out the guns, boys! Live Pirate and die free
We'll not bend a knee to anyone, nor cower to their will
Grab your cutlass, load your cannons, fire your shot and give'em hell!
Run out the guns, boys! Come on!
Run out the guns, boys! Hey!
Run out the guns, boys!
Run out the guns, boys! Fire your shot and give'em hell
