Blackbeard's Treasure Lyrics & Tabs by Captain Dan & the Scurvy Crew
Blackbeard's Treasure
guitar chords lyrics
I was sipping on rum down in Old Havana
relaxing, just kicking it under the cabana
When this old man walks up, scurvy as can be
taps me on the shoulder, and he points to the sea
"Pardon me sir, are you the Captain Dan?"
"I'm a sailor no more, cause I live on the land"
"But this map I have points to perilous pleasure
the long lost chest containing Blackbeard's treasure"
"You're the worst liar amongst the scurvy knaves
That treasure's been swallowed by the ocean waves
A storm took that booty in its undertow"
"Ah Captain D that is surely not so."
"Well then" I say, "What is your fee?
Or should I just kill you and take it for free?
Just give me that map, let me have a look"
"Well then" I say, "What is your fee?
Or should I just kill you and take it for free?
Just give me that map, let me have a look"
"Unhand me at once you rotten crook!"
I'm a bilgerat maties, I'm a serious sailor,
I don't need two hands just to rob from my neighbor
Hittin' you with rhymes like a nine tailed cat
We're off to seek and dig where the treasure is at
Black Beard's Gold is all that we seek
We plunder and we steal from the old and the meek
Dropping phat rhymes every day of the week
We're the only rap crew with buccaneer technique
"Now this is a joke that doesn't make me laugh
You call this a map? But where's the other half?
Give me a name, put me on the path
Tell me right now or you'll be feeling my wrath"
"It's in the possession of the pirate Corsair
He's gone to the Keys from the port of Le'bare
His ship's been wounded and is headed for repair
If you set sail you'll catch him unaware."
So we find Corsair and his wounded galleon
Strike your colors so we can board you rapscallion!
The flags go down 'cause he knows he's outgunned
So onto his ship and we begin the fun
"Give me the map" I scream at corsair,
Put my gun to his nose, and wave my hook in the air
"Never you dog, that's enough with this prank."
So we tie him up in knots and make him walk the plank.
Before he goes over, a spark lights his eye
"I have the map, here, I don't want to die."
I take the map and review it with glee
And then push him overboard out into the sea
We plunder their booty, and scuttle the ship
Who wants a galleon that's been beat by a whip?
The map was complete, who cares what we did
We set sail for the x where the treasure is hid
Three days travel to mouth of the cave
The skies all darken, not a single wave
In waters only sailed by the dumb or the brave
In pursuit of the riches that we dare to crave
Blackbeard's chest! it was sitting right there
A mountain of gold in the open air
I was just so focused then on what I'd be worth
I didn't notice a rumble under the earth
I'm a bilgerat maties, I'm a serious sailor,
I don't need two hands just to rob from my neighbor
Hittin' you with rhymes like a nine tailed cat
We're off to seek and dig where the treasure is at
Black Beard's Gold is all that we seek
We plunder and we steal from the old and the meek
Dropping phat rhymes every day of the week
We're the only rap crew with buccaneer technique
What the hell is this? a dragon! blast!
Better call all the maties over here really fast
It went something like this- The dragon was pissed
And ate all my sailors in the flick of a wrist
With a metallic crash, the PD10 apeared
I'm sorry but the plot here gets kinda wierd
See I've drank so much rum since this story begun
I forgot what happened at the end of the run.
Oh yes I remember, the dragon was slain,
The robots laser shot and splattered his brains!
I took all the loot, and shot back to my ship,
Went back to Havana and chilled for a bit.
I'm a bilgerat maties, I'm a serious sailor,
I don't need two hands just to rob from my neighbor
Hittin' you with rhymes like a nine tailed cat
We're off to seek and dig where the treasure is at
Black Beard's Gold is all that we seek
We plunder and we steal from the old and the meek
Dropping phat rhymes every day of the week
We're the only rap crew with buccaneer technique
