lyrics

He was born in a house down by the sea,
Born with sea in his veins.
Taught to serve god, a vicar was he,
Till one day a storm proved his bane.

Yon storm was a terrible, violent thing,
The wind and the waves they be mighty.
Swept off his feet into the depths of the sea,
His saviour be one Captain Blight.

Pulpit Jack, arrr that be his name.
Nay be a man known with such malice.
Pulpit Jack, he sailed the seven seas,
Fall from grace to the helm of a ship.

Now blighty he were a generous soul,
Took Jack as part of his crew.
Abandoned his God for Silver & Gold,
Found pleasures with Ladies like Sue
“alright Jack, the usual is it”
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum,
And pleasures of the flesh they be good,
But greed and lust be the end of young Jack
The legend at last twas undone.

Pulpit Jack, arrr that be his name.
Nay be a man known with such malice.
Pulpit Jack, he sailed the seven seas,
Fall from grace to the helm of a ship.
