My mother said my hair was too long to sail
So I cut it all off and waved goodbye
As we set sail from Clew Bay
That was how I earned my name
I oppose your social convention
I rendered the Salic code redundant
I am free, I will live my life as I see fit
All hands on deck
The enemy draws near
Don't cross swords with me, I'll crush you
Don't get in my way
Feel my fury invade your soul
Pay my tax now or lose your head
They don't call me Pirate Queen for nothing
Fought a struggle of the archaic world
Plundered ruthless with style and panache
A nurse to rebellions for 40 years
Fearless leader of men by land and sea
The times were ablaze, I broke the mould
Lead my galleys onward to victory
Bargained with Elizabeth the Queen herself
Secured my head, I became legend
All hands on deck
The enemy draws near
Don't cross swords with me, I'll crush you
Don't get in my way
Feel my fury invade your soul
Pay my tax now or lose your head
They don't call me Pirate Queen for nothing
Commander of pirates at sea
Spreading out my might for all to see
For all to see
I am Gráinne
Don't cross swords with me, I'll crush you
Don't get in my way
Feel my fury invade your soul
Pay my tax now or lose your head
They don't call me Pirate Queen for nothing
