Jolly Roger Lyrics

When I was a younger man I ran away to sea

For awhile I scrubbed the decks for whiskey and a fee

Now and then I go to see my lass in Kilkenny

But then the ocean's calling 'it's a pirate's life for me'

Salute! Jolly roger

Fly! Jolly roger

Sing! Jolly roger

It's the banner of the sea

Salute! Jolly roger

Fly! jolly roger

Sing! jolly roger

It's the only flag for me

On Samhain we light a candle to the shores of home

Listen to the voices of those who walk alone

All Saints' Day we tap the kegs and drink up all the while

To celebrate the ones we miss back on the Emerald Isle

Salute! Jolly roger

Fly! Jolly roger

Sing! Jolly roger

It's the banner of the sea

Salute! Jolly roger

Your! Jolly roger

My! Jolly roger

It's the only flag for me

I've been to places near and far from sea to shining sea

Down where all the stars are strange, adventure waits for me

Counting all the bounty, we pillage and we steal

Never had to rob an Irishman and hope I never will

Salute! Jolly roger

Fly! Jolly roger

Sing! Jolly roger

It's the banner of the sea

Salute! Jolly roger

Drink! Jolly roger

Your! Jolly roger

It's the only flag for me

Salute! Jolly roger

Hey! Jolly roger

Drink! Jolly roger

It's the banner of the sea

Salute! Jolly roger

Your! Jolly roger

My! Jolly roger

It's the only flag for me
