Lyrics Golden Earring

Golden Earring

Bloody Buccaneers

Your love tells me how

Hey-la hey-la hey-lo

I scratch the morning with a diamond

Bucked the storm like a whore last night

I'm goin' after that Spanish Galion

Skull, bones and dangerous

I got a tattoo big, always saved my life

A burnin' heart with a stabbin' knife

We swear by the bread and the wine

More serious than any divine

Hey-la hey-la hey-lo

Mexican silver, shining gold

Jewels, pearls and rum in the hold

I'm the alligator-law, chewin' on your bait

Ransacking loading you from stern to gate

Last night I saw you against the moon

My beautiful princess white as snow

Nothing wrong about leaning on a shoulder

When you're outta breath

Ho ho let me escort you

And take you to my cabin down below

Ah, you bring the devil out in me

Ah you make me sin baby, sin baby

Again and again

Oh yeah bloody Buccaneer

The crew's plottin' sharp for the prize

So I lock the door and leave a note outside

Any man break into this room

Better prepare for death and doom

I had my cutlass on her neck

Warm and white I told her

I'm a pirate from the Skeleton Isles

And I never forget the sweet things she said

Ah, you bring the devil out in me

Ah you make me sin baby, sin baby

Again and again

Oh yeah bloody Buccaneer

Mexican silver, Peruvian gold
