She said come home to me, to me
She said come home to me
I sailed towards the biggest prize
That all the Pirates know
A haul the likes they've never seen
A prize that I can show
She said come home to me, to me
She said come home to me
We found the cove down in the west
Disembarked upon the sand
Followed the trail laid out for us
Away across the land
She said come home to me, to me
She said come home to me
A cave of wonders we did find
We filled our ship with gold
We sang the songs on our way home
Like heroes from tales of old
She said come home to me, to me
She said come home to me
On our way home, a war did we find
The Antivans blocked our way
The cannons fired, boarded and sunk
Bound in shackles, we're prisoners away
She said come home to me, to me
She said come home to me
Now here I stand on the gallows boards
A rope around my neck
I broke my promise to my dear love
As I waved her goodbye on deck
She said come home to me, to me. She said come home to me.
A pirates treasure we did find
A lifetimes haul I know
But there she weeps oh my dear love
A wound worse than any foe.
And I never returned to she, to she
And I'll never return to sea…
