Deep through oceans far and wide
To find our souls we sail
A spirit judged us for our pride
Now ship and sea's our jail
6D The first we found was in a jar,
4C When broke, the sky turned red,
5C The next was bartered through bazaar,
2S And twelve months the winds were dead
6C The sirens failed to sink the ship
6H But foiled by budding love
5S The new winds made us well equip
3H But romance drowned like a dove
5H A new port welcomed us with booze
3C But chased us when they learned
2C
Into the jail, they slammed the door
And threw away the key
I looked on over to my crew
And they looked back to me
We waited by the grates each night
Through days and months and year
No person come to judge our fates
And guards now disappear
We yearned to go back to the sea
And cursed that spirit's soul
But still we're trapped in prison keep
And cannot pay our toll
