Pirate Queen - Karliene

Villainous, infamous Anne Bonny

Villainous, infamous Anne Bonny

Villainous, infamous Anne Bonny

Villainous, infamous Anne Bonny

Summer of 1720

I found my call as a pirate of the sea

Feared as any man and brave as can be

A deadly pirate boy

Ah, I plundered and murdered

And raided the sea

I ransacked farms on the isle of Haiti

I fired my pistol mercilessly

Oh, how savagery suited me!

But I was tired of bluffing the lads

Tired of living behind a mask

Tired of hiding my love for Jack

Oh, to just be me…

So I gathered my courage

And stood on the dck

I tore my shirt and I bore my breasts

I said, «Fight m, drown me, cut my neck

But I’ll die as Anne Bonny!»
