Buccaneer Dil

From Dreams of Hope

(Based on Steeleye Span, Allison Gross)

Bucaneer Dil - she comes from down South
The loveliest bard in the North Country
She'd taken her rapier, her pipes and her tambor
Serves Lord Sumter on land - and undersea

With Sargas and Morgan in cave she delved
She helped Tsun to break up an ogre's knees
The bandits they vanquished, the trade goods recovered
With Crow then they set Honedaxe mayor free

(Chorus) Bucaneer Dil, She must be
As mad as a sailor without the sea
Bucaneer Dil, She must be
The pluckiest bard in the North Country

She met with the Fae queen in caverns deep
Taught orcs how to sing and to march with glee
Then off to a temple, down under the water
To rescue A Song, defiled evil- lee

They found refugees from the Crescent Dream
A library full of bad poe - eh - tree
A chapel with demon spawn and aberrations
And Vos Caen prac-ticing sorcery !

(Chorus)

So now the defilement is cleansed with steel
The Maestro disrupted, The Song set free
Leviathan speaks through the Serpent of Wisdom
Honedaxe has returned to prosperity

(Final Chorus)
Bucaneer Dil, She must be
As mad as a sailor without the sea
Bucaneer Dil, She must be
The loveliest bard in the North Country
(Repeat ad infinitum, for as long as the rum lasts ...)
