The Seven Deadly Sins Songtext

von Flogging Molly

Sail away where no ball and chain can keep us from the roaring waves
Together undivided, but forever we'll be free
So sail away aboard our rig, the moon is full and so are we
We're seven drunken pirates, we're the seven deadly sins

So the years rolled by and several died and left us somewhat reeling
Johnny strummed his Tommy gun left blasting through the ceiling
So what became of rebels who sang for you and me?
Grappling with their demons in the search for liberty

Suffers who suffer all can swim upon the desert
Where avarice have ravaged all in spite of good intentions
Don't fill your mouth with gluttony, for pride will surely swell
But nothing's unforgiven in the four corners of hell

So sail away where no ball and chain can keep us from the roaring waves
Together undivided, but forever we'll be free
So sail away aboard our rig, the moon is full and so are we
We're seven drunken pirates, we're the seven deadly sins

We're seven drunken pirates, we're the seven deadly sins

Envy and its evil twin, it crept in bed with slander
Idiots they gave advice but sloth, it gave no answer
Anger kills the human soul with butter tales of lust
While Pavlov's dogs keep chewing on the legs they never trust

Sail away where no ball and chain can keep us from the roaring waves
Together undivided, but forever we'll be free
Sail away aboard our rig, the moon is full and so are we
We're seven drunken pirates, we're the seven deadly sins

We're seven drunken pirates, we're the seven deadly sins

But It's the only life we'll know
Blaggards to the bone
So don't wreck yourself, take an honest grip
For there's more tales beyond the shore

Ah, the years rolled by and several died and left us somewhat reeling
In and out came crawlin' out and spewed upon the ceiling
So what became of rebels that sang for you and me
Grappling with their demons in the search for liberty

Sail away where no ball and chain can keep us from the roaring waves
Together undivided, but forever we'll be free
Sail away aboard our rig, the moon is full and so are we
We're seven drunken pirates, we're the seven deadly sins

Sail away where no ball and chain can keep us from the roaring waves
Together undivided, but forever we'll be free
Sail away aboard our rig, the moon is full and so are we
We're seven drunken pirates, we're the seven deadly sins

We're seven drunken pirates, we're the seven deadly sins
We're seven drunken pirates, we're the seven deadly sins
