The Incredible String Band - Old Buccaneer слова песни
sissie wouldn`t believe when I told her the old man was gonethe one who lived all alone in the shack on the shore that`s so hard to find, so har to go past he used to light our cigarettes and never tell anyone he had blue tattoos and he`d tell us tall stories from the bottom of a rum glass he`s got things to see on the spanish main he`s gone away for awhile he`s gone skullduggering on the spanish main he`s gone away far awaythought I heard sails creaking as the stars paledanchor chains clinking as the night failed way out on the bayno one else knows how he crowed when they crowned him king of the cannibal islesor how he`d really feel blind drunk at the wheel through a high hurricane he could dupe the devil at dice and charm charmers whit his beguiling smile how he fell in love in Lima and a schemer stole his pearly girl and broke his heart again now all the foes he killed call him in to fight with their beckoning bones and all the gold he stole sparkles in the morning light his sweet ladies are all alonesissie dear let`s not go near the church today the big bells tolling the hearse goes rolling the holy joes pray as they lay him awaylived one too many winters cold cold weather had to sail down to the south sea waters warm his old bones there let an old man go through let an old man go through
