Yo Ho (A Pirate's Life for Me) Lyrics

Oh, a pirate's life for me
Yo ho!

We pillage, we plunder
We rifle and loot
Stand up, me hearties, yo ho!
We kidnap and ravage
And don't give a hoot
Stand up, me hearties, yo ho!

Oh, a pirate's life for me
Yo ho!

We extort, we pilfer
We filch and sack
Stand up, me hearties, yo ho!
Maraud and embezzle
And even hijack
Stand up, me hearties, yo ho!

Oh, a pirate's life for me
Yo ho!

We kindle and char
And in flame and ignite
Stand up, me hearties, yo ho!
We burn up the city
We're really a fright
Stand up, me hearties, yo ho!

We're rascals and scoundrels
We're villains and knaves
Stand up, me hearties, yo ho!
We're devils and black sheep
And really bad eggs
Stand up, me hearties, yo ho!

Oh, a pirate's life for me
Hey!
Oh, a pirate's life for me
Yo ho!

We're beggars and blighters
And ne'er do-well cads
Stand up, me hearties, yo ho!
Aye, but we're loved
By our mommys and dads
Stand up, me hearties, yo ho!

Hey
Oh, a pirate's life for me
Yo ho! (x3)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
