Lyrics[edit]

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me
The Kraken leapt from the ocean brine
Look out, me hearties, yo ho
And to the Locker the Sparrow confined
Look out, me hearties, yo ho
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me
A goddess thought she'd a Sparrow save
Look out, me hearties, yo ho
And brought a blackguard back from the grave
Look out, me hearties, yo ho
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me
The Flying Dutchman is on the hunt
Look out, me hearties, yo ho
To punish a Sparrow for his affront
Look out, me hearties, yo ho
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me
Within the chest his secret sleeps
Look out, me hearties, yo ho
The heart of Davy Jones still beats
Look out, me hearties, yo ho
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me
