Lyrics Ye Banished Privateers – You And Me And The Devil Makes Three
Text:
Met the love of mine, aye a lad so fine,
Oh somewhere in the Southern Carribean.
I was tied down below on an old ship of the line.
You and me Donny, and the Devil makes three,
Oh colony made, from the Dutch slave trade,
Oh somewhere in the Southern Carribean.
Volouptous and great was her rack of grenades.
You and me Bonnie, and the Devil makes three,
On the cold and billowing sea.
Not a single fleck, on her smooth curved neck,
Oh somewhere in the Southern Carribean.
I had her released to the cannon deck.
You and me Bonnie, and the Devil makes three,
On the cold and billowing sea.
Oh, without compare, was our love affair,
Oh somewhere in the Southern Carribean.
All learned to beware of me deadly stare.
You and me Donny, and the Devil makes three,
On the cold and billowing sea
Oh her cold round lips, they would hiss and spit,
Oh somewhere in the Southern Carribean.
Unmatched be the weight of her iron hips.
You and me Bonnie, and the Devil makes three,
On the cold and billowing sea.
And me deadly bite, It struck terror and fright
Oh somewhere in the Southern Carribean.
He snuck from ‘is watch to me bed at night
You and me Donny, and the Devil makes three,
On the cold and billowing sea.
Then our ship ran aground, we for shipwreck were bound.
Oh somewhere in the Southern Carribean.
I clasped round his waist as the keel spun around.
You and me Donny, and the Devil makes three,
On the cold and billowing sea.
With me old fine luck, oh me belt got stuck,
Oh somewhere in the Southern Carribean.
As we fell over board, down the deep we were sucked.
You and me Bonnie, and the Devil makes three,
On the cold and billowing sea.
Now so dark be the scene, in this deep sea ravine
Oh somewhere in the Southern Carribean.
Oh, Be it the locker or fidd(e)lers green.
You and me Bonnie, and the Devil makes three,
On the cold and billowing sea.
Aye here we be, on the bottom of the sea,
Oh somewhere in the Southern Carribean.
Together with each other for eternity.
You and me Donny, and the Devil makes three,
On the cold and billowing sea.
Aye here we be, on the bottom of the sea,
Oh somewhere in the Southern Carribean.
Together with each other for eternity.
You and me Bonnie, and the Devil makes three, oh,
You and me Donny, and the Devil makes three,
On the cold and billowing sea.
