about

This is the first track on our first album, the first draft of this song was actually written in the first couple of weeks of the bands life but hadn't found its place until a revisit and re-arrange after already recording 2 songs for the album.

You can watch the music video on Facebook @jollyrogerbanduk, It was filmed in one at at the JollyRoger household.

lyrics

Down she goes, to Davy Jones

Down she goes, to Davy Jones

Down she goes, to Davy Jones

Down she goes, to Davy Jones



We set aside our normal lives, to dress in hats and beards.

To sing of guns and Krakens with our tankards full of beer.

No more working 9 to 5, we’ll stick it to the man.

We’ll raise the anchor, change the tiers and sail across the land.


Now if you wanna quit your job, and live a life of crime.

Have a blast everyday, be happy all the time.

Trade your tie and works shoes, with the lady at the bar.

Grow out your hair and mustache, we’re going wide and far.



Raise your beer above your head and sing along with me.

Gather up your hats and beards and meet me at the Quay.

whenever we are on the land, we're dreaming of the sea.

Come join a bunch of pirates of the 21st century.



Instrumental.



Raise your beer above your head and sing along with me.

Gather up your hats and beards and meet me at the Quay.

Coz whenever we are on the land, we're dreaming of the sea.

Come join a bunch of pirates of the 21st century.


Instrumental.

Down she goes, to Davy Jones

Down she goes, to Davy Jones

Down she goes, to Davy Jones

Down she goes, to Davy Jones



Raise your beer above your head and sing along with me.

Gather up your hats and beards and meet me at the Quay.

Coz whenever we are on the land, we're dreaming of the sea.

Come join a bunch of pirates of the 21st century.
