Lyrics Oh, Better Far to Live and Die

Oh better far to live and die
Under the brave black flag I fly
Than play a sanctimonious part with a pirate head and a pirate heart
Away to the cheating world go you where pirates all are well to do
But I'll be true to the song I sing and live and die a Pirate King
For I am a Pirate King and it is, it is a glorious thing to be a Pirate King
I am a Pirate King
You are
Hurrah for the Pirate King
And it is, it is a glorious thing
To be a Pirate King
It is
Hurrah for the Pirate King
Hurrah for the Pirate King
Oh he is a Pirate King
He is
Hurrah for the Pirate King
And it is, it is a glorious thing to be a Pirate King
It is
Hurrah for the Pirate King
Hurrah for the Pirate King
When I sally forth to seek my prey
I help myself in a royal way
I sink a few more ships it's true than a well-bred monarch ought to do
But many a king on a first-class throne
If he wants to call his crown his own
Must manage somehow to get through more dirty work than ever I do
For I am a Pirate King and it is, it is a glorious thing to be a Pirate King
I am a Pirate King
You are
Hurrah for the Pirate King
And it is, it is a glorious thing to be a Pirate King
It is
Hurrah for the Pirate King
Hurrah for the Pirate -ate
Ha ha ha ha ha
Ha-ate King
Hoo wee
