GRAINNE MHAOL, QUEEN OF THE PIRATES
(Music & Lyrics by Gavin Dunne)

1. Daughter of the dun, terror of the west
Sailed the coast of Ireland with O’Malley on her crest
Sailors on the blue, shakin’ in their cots
Feeling the foreboding of the terror that she wrought

Hup the hull and away we go, stock the galley o’ gold
Wack the divil the gales he blow, we’ll batter him in the hull
Dance along on the water line, speed us over the waves
Back to back on the borderline, never shut up and behave

Chorus:

Grainne Mhaol, Queen of the pirates
She set sail on the raging sea
Grainne Mhaol, the gleam of the Irish
Spun her tales on the ocean free

2. Never to be caught, tangled on the ropes
Hacked away the lengthy locks in order to elope
She would lose no fight, she would take no shite
Stole the noble offspring in the middle of the night

Hup the hull and away we go, stock the galley o’ gold
Wack the divil the gales he blow, we’ll batter him in the hull
Dance along on the water line, speed us over the waves
Back to back on the borderline, never shut up and behave

Chorus:

Grainne Mhaol, Queen of the pirates
She set sail on the raging sea
Grainne Mhaol, the gleam of the Irish
Spun her tales on the ocean free
