[Chorus]
Fifteen men on a dead man's chest
(Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum)
Drink and the devil be done for the rest
(Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum)

[Verse 1]
The mate was fixed by the bos'n's pike
The bos'n' brained with a marlin spike and
And the cookey's throat was marked belike it
Had been gripped by fingers ten and
There they lay all good dead men like
Break of day in a snoozing den
(Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum)

[Chorus]
Fifteen men of 'em good and true
(Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum)
Every man Jack could ha' sailed with old Pew
(Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum)

[Verse 2]
There was chest on chest of Spanish gold with a
Ton of plate in the middle hold
And the cabins riot with stuff untold
As they lay there that had took the plum
With a sightless glare and their lips struck dumb
While we shared all by the rule of thumb
(Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum)
[Chorus]
Fifteen men on a dead man's chest
(Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum)
Drink and the devil be done for the rest
(Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum)

Fifteen men on a dead man's chest
(Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum)
Drink and the devil be done for the rest
(Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum)

[Outro]
And a yo ho ho
