Karliene - Mary Read lyrics
[Karliene - Mary Read lyrics]
Dressed in mans clothes
She told me of her life
England born regretfully a girl
For if she’d been a boy
A coffer she’d have earned
And just like me they dressed her as a 'Tom'
She ran off to sea first chance she got
She worked many schooners
She joined the cavalry
She clad from man to woman
Whatever made her free
Whoa, such a girl I’d never seen
Whoa, fistful lifе, pistol keen
Whoa, such a friend there’d nеver been
Whoa, than the likes of Mary Read
And when we met i felt a sudden union
Sister and a friend kindred companion
She taught me a lot reminded me to laugh
And she was my love right next to Jack
Whoa, her name was Mary Read
Whoa, sister pirate queen
Whoa, such a friend there’d never been
Whoa, than the likes of Mary Read
Whoa, her name was Mary Read
Whoa, sister pirate queen
Whoa, such a friend there’d never been
Whoa, than the likes of Mary Read
Whoa, her name was Mary Read
Whoa, sister pirate queen
Whoa, such a friend there’d never been
Whoa, than the likes of Mary Read
