Jolly Rogers - The Devils Son Lyrics

His name was Teach when he came to Carolina
Like a man possessed, he scoured the sea, and the Devil called him son

Blackbeard!

Teach, the demon of the Sea
Run, you sailors, run
With a beard of flame and a heart of ice
Blackbeard, the Devil's son!

He shot his first mate in the hold one day
He said: I don't give a damn!
If I don't kill someone now and then
You'll forget who I am!

He married a girl of fifteen years named Liza
From across the town they could hear her scream
As he took her maidenhead

Blackbeard!

Teach, the demon of the Sea
Run, you sailors, run
With a beard of flame and a heart of ice
Blackbeard, the Devil's son!

Governor Spotswood cried: I'll rid the world of Blackbeard
One hundred pounds will buy his head
And Hell can have his soul!

Blackbeard!

From Portsmouth town there sailed a man named Maynard
He did not come to save their lives
He came for bounty money

Blackbeard!

Teach, the demon of the Sea
Run, you sailors, run
With a beard of flame and a heart of ice
Blackbeard, the Devil's son!

Teach met his fate on the shores of Carolina
A challenge rang across the waves
You'll dance with death today!

Sabers bit and bullets flew
As the ships drew side by side
Blackbeard screamed like a cannon's roar
It's a damn good day to die!

Blackbeard!

Teach, the demon of the Sea
Run, you sailors, run
With a beard of flame and a heart of ice
Blackbeard, the Devil's son!

An ax, a sword, a bullet's burn
Blackbeard stood them all
He spat at his killers through broken teeth
You'll never take me alive!

Now Teach is gone and the seas are safe today
But down in Hell the Deveil's laughing
'Cuz Blackbeard's home to stay!

Blackbeard!

Teach, the demon of the Sea
Run, you sailors, run
With a beard of flame and a heart of ice
Blackbeard, the Devil's son!
