Pitcairn Island Lyrics


Captain Tractor Pitcairn Island

Oh, we're Pitcairn Island Ladies
And we're Pitcairn Island Gents
And we are the innocent victims
Of a strange turn of events

Oh, we're Pitcairn Island Ladies
And we're Pitcairn Island Gents
And we are the innocent victims
Of a strange turn of events

We dance the night away
Underneath these foreign skies
We've never been this happy
In all of our lives

Oh, the year was 1789
We found our promised land
If it wasn't for old Captain Bligh
We'd never leave these sands
His [?] as hard as tempered steel
He's a hard and bittered soul
His hair's as white as white can be
His heart's as black as coal

Oh, I'm sick of punting breadfruit for the profit of our King
If we never see Great Britain again, we sure won't miss a thing
That's why we've met in secret and quietly we've planned
And, as for good ol' Captain Bligh [?]

Oh, we're Pitcairn Island Ladies
And we're Pitcairn Island Gents
And we are the innocent victims
Of a strange turn of events
We'll dance the night away
Underneath these foreign skies
And we've never been this happy
In all of our lives

We found ourselves some pretty wives from the islands here abouts
They're beautiful beyond compare and they love us sailor lads
They're faithful to their sailor lads and no stealing, telling lies
Our children, they will have brown skin and also have blue eyes

Captain Bligh he's been set adrift down [?] [?] from our boat
He's heading back to England but the ring can hardly float
Mr Christian is our Captain now
Our plot went just as planned
We'll live in peace forever more
And let the world be damned

Oh, we're Pitcairn Island Ladies
And we're Pitcairn Island Gents
And we are the innocent victims
Of a strange turn of events
We'll dance the night away
Underneath these foreign skies
And we've never been this happy
In all of our lives

Oh we watched the bounty burning
From the shores of our fair Isle
And our laughter, it grew silent
And a tear replaced a smile
Oh we'd never see old England
But as the [?][?] hit the waves
A cheer ran up [?] [?] (Horray!)
We were no longer slaves

Oh, we're Pitcairn Island Ladies
And we're Pitcairn Island Gents
And we are the innocent victims
Of a strange turn of events
We'll dance the night away
Underneath these foreign skies
And we've never been this happy
In all of our lives

Oh, we're Pitcairn Island Ladies
And we're Pitcairn Island Gents
And we are the innocent victims
Of a strange turn of events
We'll dance the night away
Underneath these foreign skies
And we've never been this happy
In all of our lives
