Wooden Ships and Iron Men/Quotes

Hear the terror - Fires burn and cannons sound
Fate awaits me - As the vessels circle round
See the slaughter - Cutlass swings and pistols fire
Feel the anger - Raging through my body tires

—Death Before The Mast by Alestorm

We were a crew of scurvy dogs but sure we loved to pump
Even though the ship we sailed was just a ragged dump
Every day we pumped together standing side by side
The water kept on creeping in, I thought that we might die

          Into the oceans of hell, my friend
          Into the oceans we ride
          Pump with both hands 'til you're back on dry land
          We're sailing the seas 'til we die

—Man The Pumps by Alestorm
