Take my body to the cleaners,
Take my body when you go.
I 'aint no soldier, I don't got no badges,
Don't got no honour, but I got soul.
So when you leave me
Out in the cold,
I tend to find my way
Back home,
Then I'll take your treasure, your navigator,
And your doctor, oh and your boat.
Cause I am a fighter, oh a wind rider,
All I need are the stars to guide my way.
I was born dancing the hempen jig
Oh I was born dancing the hempen jig
I've died a hundred gruesome heartbreaks,
And I've born a thousand shipwrecks and one.
I wear my scars like I wear my mother,
My guiding stars and my lost shadow.
So when you take me from
My home
Just remember that
It's only flesh and bone
Go ahead and take my body to the cleaners,
Take my body when you go
I was born dancing the hempen jig
Oh I was born dancing the hempen jig
