Rum Runnin'

歌詞

I went sailing on my pirate ship Looking out for number one I didn't know what I was searching for But stealing booty sounded fun I killed a man whod spent his life seeking pleasure in the sun but he told me with his dying breath theres more to life than having fun and i had Rum Running through my bloodstream captain sailing through the rain in the ocean on my pirate ship just chasing after the wind (whistle) So I bought a farm down in carribean with the spoils that i won I had more gold than the king of spain growing sugar in the sun drinking rum with the govoner he shook my hand and i thought i'd won but he told me don't let money steal your life away you can't spend it when your gone and i had rum running through my blood stream captain sailing through the rain in my mansion, a wealthy man still chasing after the wind so i went sailing on my merchant ship looking for answers over there i didn't know what i was searching for but there was revolution in the air i met a scholar and a wise old man as he lay dying in the street but all his knowledge didn't help him as he shed his life blood on my feet but i had rum running in my bloodstream captain sailing through the rain skilled in science and philosophy just chasing after the wind....
