00:00Oh, the cannons were pumping, the shot rang clear

00:10Splinters of shrapnel flew far and near

00:13Fire broke out on the main deck's face

00:17The crew fought hard in this fiery embrace

00:20Hoist the flag, let the bounty come near

00:24Captain John Moore, our hearts filled with cheer

00:27For riches are waiting, the hole down below

00:30With silks from Venice, we'll steal the show

00:34The sea battle raged like a stormy tide

00:43But Ward led his men with fierce pirate pride

00:47The vessel before them, a merchant's delight

00:50Laden with treasures, oh, what a sight

01:11Second, a ship, oh, what mirth

01:13Gallies of slaves, their toil and their pain

01:18Liberties beckon, they'll sail forth again

01:21Hoist the flag, let the bounty come near

01:24Captain John Moore, our hearts filled with cheer
