Fifteen men on the dead man's chest--
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!
Drink and the devil had done for the rest--
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!

The Mate was fixed by the Bo's'n's pike,
The Bo's'n brained with a marlin' spike,
And Cookey's throat was marked belike

It had been gripped by fingers ten
And there they lay, all good dead men--
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum,
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!


Fifteen men all stark and cold--
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!
Their eyes popp' wide and glared and bold--
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!

The skipper lay with his nob in gore
Where the scullion's axe his cheek had shore,
And the scullion he was stabbed times four.

And there they lay and the soggy skies
Rained all day long on the staring eyes--
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum,
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!


Fifteen men of the Vixen's list--
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!
All gone down from the dvill's own fist--
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!

We wrapped 'em all in a main-sail's fold,
We sewed at the foot a bit of gold,
And we heaved 'em into the billows cold.

The bit was put as snug's could be,
Where't ne'er will bother you nor me--
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum,
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!

Arrrrrrr

O, the prickilie bush,
It pricks my heart full sore,
And if ever I get out of the prickilie bush,
I'll never get in it any more.

Hangman, slack your rope;
Will you slack it for a while?
For I think I see my brother coming;
He's riding over yonder stile.
Brother, did you bring me gold,
Or silver to pay my fee,
For to save my body from the cold clay ground,
My neck from the gallows tree?
No, I didn't bring you gold,
Or silver to pay your fee,
But your sister and I have come today
To see you on that hangman's tree.

Hangman, slack your rope;
Will you slack it for a while?
For I think I see my father coming;
He's riding over yonder stile.
Father, did you bring me gold,
Or silver to pay my fee,
For to save my body from the cold clay ground,
My neck from the gallows tree?
No, I didn't bring you gold,
Or silver to pay your fee,
But your mother and I have come today
To see you on that hangman's tree.

Hangman, slack your rope;
Will you slack it for a while?
For I think I see my true love coming;
She's riding over yonder stile.
Sweetheart, did you bring me gold,
Or silver to pay my fee?
Or have you come to see me swing
On that gallows tree?
Yes, I've brought you gold;
I brought you silver to pay your fee.
No, I could not bear to see you swing
On that hangman's tree.

Oh, the prickilie bush,
It pricks my heart full sore.
And now that I'm out of the prickilie bush,
I'll never get in it any more.

Arrr. Nay, real pyrates'll give yer Moses' Law, maroon ye, or give ye the heave to. Walkin' the plank was from romantisized writings such as Peter Pan and the Tyburn Stretch (what we pyrates calls hanging, tis also known as to dance with Jack Ketch or to do thedo the Marshal's dance or the the Devil's jig) was what happened if we gots taken ter the "Execution Dock".

According to the second source below, pirates during Roman times did have a form of walking the plank known as the "Happy Despatch".
