Prime and Load

lyrics

Prime and load our guns with thunder,
Prime and load, we’ll loot and plunder
Prime and load, then we’ll send them under
To dance a jig with Davey Jones!
The Lookout shouts, “Our prey is in sight!”
Run out the guns and haul her ‘round,
“Let’s run her down so they feel our bite!”
We’ll take their ships or burn them down!
The Boatswain roars the men to the riggin’
Run out the guns and haul her ‘round,
To make all sail ‘til the lines are singin’.
We’ll take their ships or burn them down!
[CHORUS]
The man at the wheel, his eyes are burnin’
Run out the guns and haul her ‘round,
As he turns the ship to show their stern,
We’ll take their ships or burn them down!
There’s the word from our brave First Mate,
Run out the guns and haul her ‘round,
“We’ll open fire and seal their fate!”
We’ll take their ships or burn them down!
[CHORUS]
The Captain cracks his Devil’s grin,
Run out the guns and haul her ‘round,
With his sword aloft, he calls to the men:
“We’ll take their ships or burn them down!
Fire and load our guns with thunder!
Fire and load, we’ll loot and plunder!
Fire and load, then we’ll send them under!
To dance a jig with Davey Jones!”
