Been comin' to this beach
Since I was a scared little boy
Mama pushed me in the water
And promised me a sailboat toy
Then the tan-lines and the women
Turned this boy into a man
And I only kissed the girls
My drunken heart could understand
"You sure are a long way from home," I said
"My ship's out there in the middle," she said
I'll sell the house, we'll get a boat
I'll never see my friends again
Then I'll know you're my pirate girl for sure
Spent all day making love
And smiling with our eyes
The best all-round day of my entire human life
Then you told me you were only here
To pick up some supplies
And I immediately insisted on
Talking to the captain with the one good eye
I said, "Take me as your slave."
"How 'bout the plank, and a water grave?!"
I'll sell the house, we'll get a boat
I'll never see my friends again
Then I'll know you're my pirate girl for sure
Rule the seas with our swords
We'll be some sunken treasure lords
Then I'll know you're my pirate girl for sure
And I know that this conflicts with pirate code
But if you're leaving out tomorrow I'm goin'
Cuz my heart's been auctioned off and sold
To this sun-kissed goddess I barely know
