The Song of the Jolly Roger
Performed by the SPCC Alumni Choir

Up with the Jolly Roger boys, and off we go to sea
There's heaps of fun when the Jolly Roger's hung
And the wind is on the lea, and the wind is on the lea

Blow hgh, blow low, it's off to sea we go
Without a single light, in the pale moon light,
Us bold buccaneers will go

Up with the Jolly Roger boys, and fling it to the breeze
Get gun & cutlas well in trim, for a treasure ship to seize
Yo ho, yo ho, yo ho, it's out to sea we go
For a ship from Spain, we're off across the main
Like bold buccaneers, Yo ho

Sea dogs of old, sea dogs of old
They chased the beggars across the sea
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha he
And made them pay their toll

Or down to the bottom of the sea they go
Ho ho ho ho ho ho
West men, west men, never, never feared the foe

Here's to each man, each man of the jolly, jolly crew
Who sailed the deep blue sea
Who sailed the deep blue sea
Who sailed the deep blue sea

With the Jolly Jolly Roger flying bold and free
And a prize on the Spanish main may be
And then home we come, yo ho yo ho
And the girls will be waiting on the quay I know

For the man who sailed the main
For the man who sailed the main
Yo ho ho ho yo ho ho ho yo ho
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha . . . ..Yo ho
