The Dreadnoughts - Anna Maria lyrics
[The Dreadnoughts - Anna Maria lyrics]
‘cross the oaken brigantine
While the misty air came up behind
And the sky was acid green
Well they called me Jean Lagasse
I had just turned fifty three
On the day I stood upon her deck
And put her out to sea
Sweet Anna Maria
Never More, Never more I'll see
When the thunder ripped across the bow
Well I crumbled where I stood
And I woke to find she'd kept me alive
With her final piece of wood
Don't speak to me in a fancy language
I can't understand
Don't flash your pretty medals
Don't you take my blood red hand
Just tell me how you let us stray
Before the pirate's gun
And tell me how I can find the man
Who killed my dearest one
Sweet Anna Maria
Never More, Never more I'll see
Sweet Anna Maria
Never More, Never more I'll see
Well he says she was U83
Some magical machine sent by Kaiser Willy
To the banks of the Lorient
Gonna find that coward captain
Gonna break his front door down
Gonna wrap my hands around his neck
And put him in the ground
Sweet Anna Maria
Never More, Never more I'll see
Sweet Anna Maria for Love, For Love, I'll be
