Last night, I saw it there,
|
Shining in the dark again,
|
The light that all men seem to fear;
|
|
They say that sailors were drowning in the bay,
|
And people kept away,
|
Waiting for the riches that a wreck would bring,
|
When the morning comes,
|
And now the ghost of Blackbeard walks again,
|
To haunt the ones who would not hear the pain;
|
|
a€œhelp me --
|
help me --a€œ;
|
|
I took the old path down, down to where the graveyard lay,
|
The place I knew when I was young,
|
They say that Blackbeard had hidden precious stones,
|
Amongst the ancient bones,
|
So I set off to the darkness down below,
|
By the candle glow,
|
T'was then I heard the voices, saw a light,
|
And started on the journey of my life;
|
