Lyrics Hoist the Colours - Malinda

Hoist the Colours

The king and his men
Stole the queen from her bed
And bound her in her bones
The seas be ours
And by the powers
Where we will, we’ll roam
Yo, ho, all hands
Hoist the colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die
Yo, ho, all together
Hoist the colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die
Some men hav died
And some are aliv
And others sail on the sea
With the keys to the cage
And the Devil to pay
We lay to Fiddler’s Green
Yo, ho, all together
Hoist the colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die
The bell has been raised
From its watery grave
Do you hear its sepulchral tone?
We call to all
Pay head the squall
And turn your sail towards home
Yo, ho, all together
Hoist the colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die
Yo, ho, all together
Hoist the colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die
