This is a story of a man
Still haunts the sea
And the ghost still lives on
Queen Anne of Britain
She gave him licence to kill
As the war came along
Became a pirate
Continued his life changing plan
Under Hornigold's command
Acceding the Concord
Name changed to Queen Anne's Revenge
With three hundred men
Ship's approaching
Hoist The False Flag
Man the canons
Lit the fuse and fire
Dust and powder
Mist onboard
Over the gunwale
Draw your sword
Conquer the vessel
Seize their gold
Many surrendered in sight, of the flag
Dust and powder
Mist onboard
Over the gunwale Draw your sword
From the shadows
A man appeared
Fierce and wild
From his face, a long black beard
Three years of glory
Soon he'll meet his enemy
As a ship closes in
Lieutenant Maynard
Has put the search to an end
Though grounded in sand
Teach, the first aboard
Shouting and firing at everyone
And the battle's begun
Pain in the back
5 musket ball wounds
20 sword lacerations
Yet he still could fight on
Stand and fight - hand-to-hand
Survive or die - Time will tell
Clash of swords - over again
Smoke of pistols
Gold and treasure - never found
Hiding place - No-one knows
Ghost of the sea - is unleashed
This is the tale of Edward Teach
Teach them how to fear
Fear his sword and speech
Speech
Speak the words you hear Hear
Remember the tale of Edward Teach
