Black Bart Songtext / Lyric

Born in Wales, becoming a mate

1719 the year of his fate

His ship is seized, "Davis" is on

Becoming a pirate, his past is gone



Relentless in fight,

the crew's hold and guiding light

Bravery's first

and the trading ship is cursed



Black Bart at war with the world

Black Heart, embracing the curse

He's riding the wind or the edge of the storm

The storm before the calm

Black Bart



When Davis dies he is the man,

"Roberts" the captain, lord of the clan

"Royal fortune" becoming his pride,

"Nomen est omen" superior in fight






Relentless in fight,

the crew's hold and guiding light

Bravery's first

and the trading ship is cursed



Black Bart at war with the world

Black Heart, embracing the curse

He's riding the wind or the edge of the storm

The storm before the calm

Black Bart



On "Cape Lopez" the "Swallow" is near,

hangover in blood, setting the gear

The mariner fights, firing a round,

"Roberts" is dead, finally drowned



Relentless in fight,

the crew's hold and guiding light

Bravery's first

and the trading ship is cursed



Black Bart at war with the world

Black Heart, embracing the curse

He's riding the wind or the edge of the storm

The storm before the calm

Black Bart
