About the Artist
Lyrics
Of the sight of me the Spaniards must be seasick to the molar I plunder treasure galleons off the shores of Hispaniola And if a ship done caught my eye, I went ahead and stole 'er L'Ollonnais, Chevalier; everybody fears They roasted men like manatee and washed them down with tears But I am the cruellest of all Buccaneers Lily livered land lubbers, I put them to the cutlass The greatest seafarers of lore Wished they'd stayed ashore And studied the atlas We are the Buccaneers of Hispaniola Buccaneers of Hispaniola Tighten up that woolding rope 'til your eye pops out of its socket Hang you upside down and take whatever comes out of your pocket Slice you nice and thin so you fit in your widow's locket I took on the bravest of the brave and gutted them gutless My one man relentless pursuit Of booty and loot Put the Caribbean on the atlas We are the Buccaneers of Hispaniola Buccaneers of Hispaniola Ba ba ba ba ba ba Buccaneers Ba ba ba ba ba ba Buccaneers Ba ba ba ba ba ba Buccaneers Ba ba ba ba ba ba Buccaneers
