I'll Tell You a Tale lyrics

I still hear the sea

Calling out to me

It's been sixty years or more

I suppose you've come to me

For the story of Anne Bonny

They write that she was

Villainous, infamous

So full of sinfulness

And wickedness

Crazy and scandalous

Ferocious

Void of all conscience

And womanness

I still feel the ship

Rocking under feet

That happy smell of rum and brine

It was all I wished to me

I was free as Anne Bonny

And indeed I was

Villainous, infamous

Full of ambitiousness

And willfulness

Wild and passionate

Courageous

Like a man I was limitless

And fearless

Oh I'll tell you a tale

Of a pirate queen

A she-wolf who reigned

The Caribbean sea

With a pistol-a-ready

And a cutlass keen

The villainous

Infamous

Anne Bonny
