Blackbeard

Riding the Queen Annes Revenge, a fierce and ruthless privateer
Fuses tied upon the hat, a madman spreading bloody fear
By the words of crew he ruled, no tyrant nor an evil beast
He was robbing everything in sight,
With saber and six guns, known as Blackbeard!

One last battle on the seas, when Robert Maynard chased him down
Devastating canon fire, turned the lieutenants ship to wreck
Closing in to fight by sword, a melee in the raging storm
The fight was on for not too long
Before the final breath of captain Blackbeard!

Blackbeard – hunted merchants
Blackbeard – across the seas
Blackbeard – not much fortune
Blackbeard – or luck by greed
Blackbeard – a battled pirate
Blackbeard – he burned for gold
Blackbeard – a short adventure
Blackbeard – great stories told
