Black Hearted Jack Video (MV)

Captain Riggs was kings of the jigs
King of the jigs was Captains Riggs
He sailed the sea among the pigs
The pigs could dig the captains jigs
He'd set the sails both night and day
Set them fast and sail away
Tell his son that he should stay
To earn himself a decent pay
But lost his life out on the ocean

Riggs sail was big as a whale
Big as a whale was Riggs sail
He'd sing ya song or tell ya a tale
He'd tell ya a tale with the wind in his sail
His son he never heard a word
Grabbed his duffle and jumped aboard
Captain Riggs he ripped and roared
He almost sent the ship ashore
But lost his life out on the ocean

Well Jacks heart was blacker than black
Blacker than black the heart of Jack
Quick to defend and quick to attack
The lighting quick smack of black hearted Jack
Had no one to call his own
He drank his rum and he drank alone
He had no sword he'd use a stone
He'd cut you up and break your bones
He lost his life out on the ocean

Riggs son was six foot one
Six foot one was Riggs son
Quick to grab a ball for his gun
Shoot and then load them one after one
Left his wife and only child
To sail the sea a little while
Gather up his gold in piles
And chase the sun for miles and miles
He lost his life out on the ocean

On this day Riggs made some way
He's making way sure day after day
With the wind in his sails and a view of the Quay
Jack was moored a mile away
He took his crew and went ashore
But on his way to the merchants door
His gold it fell upon the floor
He caused a scene He cursed and swore
He lost his life out on the ocean

Jack hid and Stowed away
Far outside a view of the Quay
Intentions were to rob and slay
He let the ship sail half a day
Well Jacks heart was blacker than black
Blacker than black the heart of Jack
Quick to defend and quick to attack
The lighting quick smack of black hearted Jack

Captain Riggs and the band of pigs
The band of pigs and Captain Riggs
Were practicing their hearty jiggs
Drinking rum and boring ciggs
Jack fired a single round
Knocked a barrel of powder down
Could see the fire burn from down
The ship she sank the men they drown

They lost their lives out on the ocean
They lost their lives out on the sea
Lost their lives out on the ocean
Lost their wives and family
