My Name Is Captain Kidd
As I Sailed, As I Sailed,
Oh My Name Is Captain Kidd As I Sailed,
My Name Is Captain Kidd
And God's Laws I Did Forbid,
And Most Wickedly I Did As I Sailed.

My Father Taught Me Well
To Shun The Gates Of Hell,
But Against Him I Rebelled As I Sailed,
He Shoved A Bible In My Hand
But I Left It In The Sand
And I Pulled Away From Land,
As I Sailed

[Chorus]

I Murdered William Moore
And I Left Him In His Gore
Twenty Leagues Away From Shore
As I Sailed,
And Being Crueler Still, The Gunner I Did Kill
All His Precious Blood Did Spill,
As I Sailed,

[Chorus]

I Was Sick And Nigh To Death,
And I Vowed At Every Breath,
Oh To Walk In Wisdom's Path,
As I Sailed
But My Repentance Lasted Not,
My Vows I Soon Forgot,
Oh Damnation Is My Lot,
As I Sailed.

[Chorus]

To The Execution Dock
Lay My Head Upon The Block,
Laws No More I'll Mock As I Sail,
So Take Warning Here And Heed
To Shun Bad Company
Or You'll Wind Up Just Like Me
As I Sailed.
