4. Tortuga (3:22)
(feat. Captain Yarrface)
Yar ha ha har
You wanna know where you are, laddie?
Alright then, let me tell you
Palm trees sway in the Caribbean breeze
The sunshine beating down
A wanted man with a price on my head
On the run from the British crown
Last week in Port Royal
I stole a ship and killed the crew
I set sail on a moonlit sky
I knew just what I had to do
It's time to spin the wheel
We can go anywhere we feel
We're heading west, to the land that's best
And I ain't ever coming back
Tortuga
Tortuga
Tortuga
Welcome to the sea (What?)
Welcome to the sea (What?)
Yarrface here to tell you how it's gonna be, with a
Yo ho, gotta be a pirate's life for me, we gonna
Dig for treasure
Cannon battle, eating lots of cattle, with a
Pow pow, shot from a treasure gun, and a
Oh wow, Royal Navy's got you on the run, we gonna
Quest forever
Sail far across oceans blue
There's a land that waits for you
Where the alcohol will flow forever
Ride to the land of endless rum
In the Caribbean sun
It's the place we must go
Tortuga
Tortuga
Tortuga
Across the sea, across the land
I've set my sights on a far off land
Across the sea, across the land
I've set my sights on a far off land
Across the sea, across the land
I've set my sights on a far off land
Across the sea, across the land
I've set my sights on
Tortuga
Far across the waves
We've sailed for many days
With gold the streets are paved
Where we gonna go?
Tortuga
Far across the waves
We've sailed for many days
With gold the streets are paved
If you're gonna drink rum, well, you better drink rum with me
Yar ha ha har
You wanna know where you are, laddie?
Alright then, let me tell you
Palm trees sway in the Caribbean breeze
The sunshine beating down
A wanted man with a price on my head
On the run from the British crown
Last week in Port Royal

I set sail on a moonlit sky
I knew just what I had to do
It's time to spin the wheel

We're heading west, to the land that's best
