The Pirate’s Gospel

Lyrics

While some folks row way up to heaven I'm gonna sing the pirate's gospel I'm gonna sow these feet for dancin' I'm gonna keep my eyes wide open Yo ho, yo ho Yo ho ho Yo ho, yo ho-ho Yo ho ho Sing the pirate's gospel Add another flame To our forest Where big-bellied whales Keep us chanting We're slapping fireflies For tiny dancers Where the children creep Until the morning When the sun does seep Into our fair flesh Until the fingernails Will take us home Yo ho, yo ho Yo ho ho Yo ho, yo ho-ho Yo ho ho Sing the pirate's gospel While some folks pray Their path to Jesus We're gonna sing The pirate's gospel We're gonna sow Our feet for dancing We're gonna keep Our eyes wide open We're gonna sing The pirate's gospel We're gonna chant The pirate's gospel You'll find us clap The pirate's gospel Yo ho, yo ho-ho Yo ho ho Yo ho, yo ho Yo ho ho Sing the pirate's gospel Sing the pirate's gospel
