They called her wistful Mary a gazing out to sea Waiting for her William a gone four score and three Conscripted as a sailor to fight the Spanish lee And she'll watch the ships come in 'till her William she doth see Yes she'll watch the ships come in 'till her William she doth see She's now called walking Mary and she walks down by the shore Her William's still not come back home it's now been four months more She bought her pants and shirt and coat and short her hair has shorn And jumped a clipper ship one day to come back never more Yes she jumped a clipper ship one day to come back never more They call him master Marlin and a cabin boy is he The crew taught him sword fighting from the captain learned to read The gunner taught him how to shoot an eye both dead and keen She became the greatest privateer to sail the seven seas She became the greatest privateer to sail the seven seas And now she's first mate Marlin and the crew follow her lead Her secrets kept behind closed lips as she sails on the sea Until a fateful moment in a pub one day on leave When she saw her William laughing there a lass upon his knee When she saw her William laughing there a lass upon his knee She screamed I'm angered Mary and out she pulled a gun The flint it sparked the pan it flashed as William tried to run Letras de cancionesThe ball caught him betwixt the eyes, poor William he was done She took his ship the seas to sail a Pirate to become She took his ship the seas to sail a Pirate to become And now she's Devilish Mary a terror on the seas And many a proud strong captain well she brought them to their knees Beware the lass a spurned just once for she'll ignore your pleas And take your ship set you adrift to drown in the salt sea Yes she'll take your ship set you adrift to drown in the salt sea Yes you'll walk the plank greet Davey Jones and drown in the salt sea From Letras Mania
