Lyrics

Fighting Swallow

Swallow

The fastest ship under the sun

Bar none

Carry us over the waves

To the adventure we crave

Drive, oh

Swallow

Swallow (Swallow)

There's not a moment to lose

Time to cruise (It's time to cruise)

You have the speed to outrun

Practically anyone

Come on

Swallow

Hold up the cannon

Powder the musket

Seal up the sinews

Sharpen the cutlass

Send our enemies

To the bottom of the sea
