The Jolly Rogers - Thank you lyrics
[The Jolly Rogers - Thank you lyrics]
We all laugh and tell old stories
Just sittin' in the dark
And not one of them knows that
When we land I'll disembark
We've spent so much time together
Out prowling on the sea
That somehow this strange group of
Men became a family
We started out no more than boys
With more guts than brains
Doing what they said could not be done
They thought we were insane
One by one they wandered to their
Bunks ready for another day
And I'm left alone here with the stars
Where they can't hear me say:
Thank you, lads, for all you are
And all you've been to me
Thank you for the laughter and
For all the memories
Thank you, for being there
Through the good times and the bad
And Thank you for being the
Best mates I've ever had!
We have seen success and we've
Watched our fortunes grow
And We have shared more happy times
Than many men will know
We were all there together when each
Of us found a wife
And we proudly watched the children grow
And have a happy life!
And We have shared great tragedy
That none should bear alone
And with every loss and heartache
Our brotherhood has grown
I'm not the first to leave, it's true
Some have gone before
I know without me the crew
Will reinvent once more
Thank you, lads, for all you are
And all you've been to me
Thank you for the laughter and
For all the memories
Thank you, for being there
Through the good times and the bad
And Thank you for being the
Best mates I've ever had!
With that the coughing starts again
The crimson hard to hide
I'm sorry my brothers
Hope you never know I lied
But this one won't get better, lads
And I know it's true
So I choose to walk away before I burden you
I will say the time is right
For me to go my way
And I know you'll understand
Or at least that's what you'll say
I will wish you luck and watch
You sail upon the sea
For the first time in forever
I will just be me
Thank you, lads, for all you are
And all you've been to me
Thank you for the laughter and
For all the memories
Thank you, for being there
Through the good times and the bad
And Thank you for being the
Best mates I've ever had!
Thank you, lads, for all you are
And all you've been to me
Thank you for the laughter and
For all the memories
Thank you, for being there
Through the good times and the bad
And Thank you for being the
Best mates I've ever had!
Thank you for being the best
Mates I've ever had
Just sittin' in the dark
And not one of them knows that
When we land I'll disembark
We've spent so much time together
Out prowling on the sea
That somehow this strange group of

We started out no more than boys
With more guts than brains
