Lyrics captain's dance with the devil - Cody Simpson

captain's dance with the devil

This young sailor’s going to drown
This old ship is sinking down
And his cheeks are black and blue
And he’s murdered all his crew
This young sailor’s going to drown
This young man is going to die
Cursed as soon as he saw the sky
And the clouds are black as Hell
And as far as we can tell
This young man is going to die
He’s off to do the Devil’s dance
Wading deep in hand with the man
He’s off to do the Devil’s deed
And he’ll never see the shoreline again
And he’ll never see the shoreline again
The youngest captain the world’s ever seen
Striking a lightning bolt dream
Only seventeen, living far beyond his means
The youngest captain the world’s ever seen
He’s off to do the Devil’s work
But to him it’s a favour for a friend
He’s off to learn the Devil’s craft
But to him it’s the only freedom for a man
Death is the only freedom for a man
Death is the only freedom for a man
