Lyrics
[intro]
[Verse 1] In a tavern by the harbor, where the salty winds do blow, There sits an old sea captain, with tales of long ago. His eyes are like the ocean, deep and stormy gray, And every sailor leans in close to hear what he might say.
[Chorus] Oh, Captain Salt Beard, tell us of your daring quests, Of ghostly ships and mermaids fair, and treasures in their chests. Through tempests wild and moonlit nights, you sailed the boundless sea, A legend carved in salt and spray, forever wild and free.
[Verse 2] He speaks of Davy Jones’s locker, where lost souls find their rest, And how he once outwitted death, with a compass and a jest. He battled Krakens in the deep, their tentacles like fate, And danced upon the Flying Dutchman, a cursed ship of hate.
[Chorus] Oh, Captain Salt Beard, tell us of your daring quests, Of ghostly ships and mermaids fair, and treasures in their chests. Through tempests wild and moonlit nights, you sailed the boundless sea, A legend carved in salt and spray, forever wild and free.
[Verse 3] He sings of islands hidden, where palm trees touch the sky, And sirens lure unwary hearts with their haunting, sweet lullaby. He found a map in a bottle, with X marks in the sand, And followed it to Atlantis, a city lost to land.
[Chorus] Oh, Captain Saltbeard, tell us of your daring quests, Of ghostly ships and mermaids fair, and treasures in their chests. Through tempests wild and moonlit nights, you sailed the boundless sea, A legend carved in salt and spray, forever wild and free.
[Bridge] But every tale has its price, and every sailor knows, That storms can rage and tides can turn, where the Kraken’s anger grows. For Captain Saltbeard’s ship, the Sea Serpent, met its fate, In the heart of the Bermuda Triangle, where time and space collide.
[Chorus] Oh, Captain Salt Beard, tell us of your daring quests, Of ghostly ships and mermaids fair, and treasures in their chests. Through tempests wild and moonlit nights, you sailed the boundless sea, A legend carved in salt and spray, forever wild and free.
[Outro] Now he sits in the tavern, with a tankard in his hand, His eyes still searching distant waves, for a glimpse of distant land. And when the moon is full and bright, he’ll vanish in the mist, A phantom ship on moonlit seas, forever chasing bliss.
