From the depths of the seas came a whispering call
“Adventure is waiting for you!”
Did my last honest job when I was 18 years old
Got a gold piece to serve in a crew
I have lied, I have cheated, I’ve been drunk like a horse
I have killed countless men without regret
I made a deal with the Devil, offered him my ugly soul
He shook my hand and the deal was set
For every sin there’s a debt to be paid
Repentance must come to us all
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth
In the end you must reap what you sow
Took a prize once, a sloop, on the coast of Aberdeen
Seven sailors, but not much to steal
We took what we wanted an’ tied ’em up in that ol’ sloop
Let it burn and laughed as they screamed
I have lied, I have cheated, I’ve been drunk like a horse
I have killed countless men without regret
But even in the darkest soul sometimes fear can be found
I hear ’em scream in my sleep now and then
For every sin there’s a debt to be paid
Repentance must come to us all
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth
In the end you must reap what you sow
We were raiding fat merchant vessels on the Bay of Biscay
When a French Man-o-War came swooping in
She carried 40 guns or more, we only had 16 left
We surrendered, and they took us in
I have lied, I have cheated, I’ve been drunk like a horse
I have killed countless men without regret
Waiting now, in a cold cell, to be sentenced to hang
Waiting for death, bracing for the end
For every sin there’s a debt to be paid
Repentance must come to us all
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth
In the end you must reap what you sow
For every sin there’s a debt to be paid
Repentance must come to us all
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth
In the end you must reap what you sow
For every sin there’s a debt to be paid
Repentance must come to us all
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth
In the end you must reap what you sow
In the end you must reap what you sow
In the end you must reap what you sow
