The year eleven eighty nine, the beginning of a pirate captain Hale was his name, He sailed the western seas His home destroyed by war turning him towards a life of plunder Though a criminal, he was still a gentleman Everywhere he went, people flocked to join his crew A regular robin hood of the seven seas Pull the ropes, Hoist the rigging, Catch the wind swift as she blows By the time they've heard of us, we're off with the cargo Striking fear to those in power, With the law we're toe to toe If, by fate, they catch us now, we'll meet at the gallows Word spread across the seas, When you saw blue sails on the horizon Coming like a storm, The Blizzard was its name Forty guns side to side, could hold off even the state armada Pushing fifteen knots, with the wind hard on its back A fearless man he was, Taking everything in stride Though captive he may take a man, they'd leave his ship alive Pull the ropes, Hoist the rigging, Catch the wind swift as she blows By the time they've heard of us, we're off with the cargo Striking fear to those in power, With the law we're toe to toe If, by fate, they catch us now, we'll meet at the gallows One day, the Blizzard ran aground, all alone on a secluded island Little did they know, the treasure that they would find A key, that could open, every lock & door throughout the countries Moving golden pins & a handle made of bone We'll put this to good use, the captain cried out to his men Well from that day on, every pirate dreamed of such a prize Pull the ropes, Hoist the rigging, Catch the wind swift as she blows By the time they've heard of us, we're off with the cargo Striking fear to those in power, With the law we're toe to toe If, by fate, they catch us now, we'll meet at the gallows Well, the years have come & gone, All the while Hale's riches ever growing On that fateful night, under stars he did set sail A shadow stalked the ship, certain death lay waiting in the deep blue Sails whipped by wind, as a storm quickly approached The creature saw it's chance, and struck with lightning speed Although he couldn't win this fight, He fought with bravery Pull the ropes, Hoist the rigging, Catch the wind swift as she blows By the time they've heard of us, we're off with the cargo Striking fear to those in power, With the law we're toe to toe If, by fate, they catch us now, we'll meet at the gallows Although, he perished with his ship, a great search went underway to find it's said on that day, that she carried her weight in gold A long time now has passed, there are those who have never forgotten The prized possession lost, Hale's key is what they seek Guarded by the deep, Only fools dare even try Though many searched a dozen times, the key was never found Pull the ropes, Hoist the rigging, Catch the wind swift as she blows By the time they've heard of us, we're off with the cargo Striking fear to those in power, With the law we're toe to toe If, by fate, they catch us now, we'll meet at the gallows Pull the ropes, Hoist the rigging, Catch the wind swift as she blows By the time they've heard of us, we're off with the cargo Striking fear to those in power, With the law we're toe to toe If, by fate, they catch us now, we'll meet at the gallows If, by fate, they catch us now, we'll meet at the gallows
