Pirates Son by Tiffany Hulse Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ships sailing out in the ocean
Birds flying high in the sky
There’s an old man who’s neither rich or poor
Who’s not afraid to die

[Chorus]
He’s living life like a pirate’s son
Never worries about what he’s said or done
The jolly roger flies and the cannons roar
‘X’ marks the spot in the sand on shore

[Verse 2]
He surrounds himself with sailors
They get along just fine
He tells them tales of long ago
When the trade ships lined the coastline

[Chorus]
'Cause he’s living life like a pirate’s son
Never worries about what he’s said or done
The jolly roger flies and the cannons roar
‘X’ marks the spot in the sand on shore
[Verse 3]
He staggers home from the tavern
Three sheets to the wind
The buccaneers at the bar they enjoy his tales
And each buy him a bottle of gin

[Chorus]
'Cause he’s living life like a pirate’s son
Never worries about what he’s said or done
The jolly roger flies and the cannons roar
‘X’ marks the spot in the sand on shore

[Verse 4]
He lives down on his sailboat
It’s anchored in the bay
And when he falls asleep, he then starts to dream
About the stories he’ll tell the next day

[Chorus]
'Cause he’s living life like a pirate’s son
Never worries about what he’s said or done
The jolly roger flies and the cannons roar
‘X’ marks the spot in the sand on shore

[Chorus]
Living life like a pirate’s son
Never worries about what he’s said or done
The jolly roger flies and the cannons roar
‘X’ marks the spot in the sand on shore
[Outro]
‘X’ marks the spot in the sand on shore
