Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me
We pillage, we plunder, we rifle, and loot
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho
We kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot
Stand up me 'earties, yo ho

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me
We extort, we pilfer, we filch, and sack
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho
Maraud and embezzle, and even high-jack
Stand up, me 'earties, yo ho

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me
We kindle and char, inflame and ignite
Stand up, me 'earties, yo ho
We burn up the city, we're really a fright
Stand up, me 'earties, yo ho

We're rascals, scoundrels, villains, and knaves
Stand up, me 'earties, yo ho
We're devils and black sheep, really bad eggs
Stand up, me 'earties, yo ho

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me
We're beggars and blighters, ne'er-do-well cads
Stand up, me 'earties, yo ho
Aye, but we're loved by our mommies and dads
Stand up, me 'earties, yo ho

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me!
