OKAY PEOPLE!! Listen, I just made this video I made just for fun, I was around fifteen at the time it was made! I tried my best to match descriptions to the words, some of them I couldn't find, so I put what sounded like the word being said example cookey = cookie monster because it sounded like the "cookey" as it was being said. The lyrics below were copied straight from the a lyric site, if they are wrong, blame the site, NOT ME!!!!
IF YOU POST VULGAR OR DOWNRIGHT MEAN COMMENTS, I WILL DELETE YOUR COMMENT.
One more thing, I can't seem to find this song anywhere, I believe I downloaded it off of Limewire, and I got a new computer. So that could explain why I cannot find this version with the exact lyrics or singing anywhere.
Oh wow!!! Over 500,000 views and 2,000 likes and it's still growing!!!! Never thought I'd get this far! :) Enjoy.
These are the lyrics to the song. . .
Fifteen men on a dead man's chest
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
Drink and the devil had done for the rest
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.
The mate was fixed by the bosun's pike
The bosun brained with a marlinspike
And cookey's throat was marked belike
It had been gripped by fingers ten;
And there they lay, all good dead men
Like break o'day in a boozing ken.
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.
Fifteen men of 'em stiff and stark
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
Ten of the crew had the murder mark!
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
Twas a cutlass swipe or an ounce of lead
Or a yawing hole in a battered head
And the scuppers' glut with a rotting red
And there they lay, aye, damn my eyes
Looking up at paradise
All souls bound just contrariwise
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.
Fifteen men of 'em good and true
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
Ev'ry man jack could ha' sailed with Old Pew,
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
There was chest on chest of Spanish gold
With a ton of plate in the middle hold
And the cabins riot of stuff untold,
And they lay there that took the plum
With sightless glare and their lips struck dumb
While we shared all by the rule of thumb,
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
Fifteen men on a dead man's chest
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
Drink and the devil had done for the rest
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.
Fifteen men on a dead man's chest
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
Drink and the devil had done for the rest
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.
And a yo ho ho!
I OWN NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RUclips recommendations: did you say pirate music and sea shanties
Me: No but yes
"Well, no, but actually yes"
hmmmm probably
It just means that they like you 😉
I get what you truly mean

I now want to see a pirate move where all the characters are played by Ryan renolds but here's the twist there's almost no script
You absolute madlad.

Because Ryan is awesome af lol
Because that sexy slab of meat is literally is the only human worth calling a man.
Anyone came here because they remembered this from Treasure Island?
RoM Lord
I need to read that book again.

At least five years for me, I think.
Yes, haha ! :)
I didn't know that anybody would come for any other reason. That's one of the books that I grew up with.
Derric Greene me and my bros were drinking to it XD
this song makes me wanna buy a ship and go plundering over the seas singing it with my crew while drinking rum :D

Opened this up before loading into The Pirate Bay, and I gotta say this really set the meme-y atmosphere well. Thanks for the upload :)
But... the rum is gone. Why is the rum gone?! >:(
anger
Why's the rum gone?
Aaah potc memories!
For those who are wondering:
The song is about a ship discovering another ship run aground on a reef called the 'Dead Man's Chest' (Because at low tide the rocks looked like the front of a rib cage sticking out of the water) and that the grounded ship had been a privateer or pirate vessel that hit a spanish treasure ship, and that the crew suffered a mutiny over the stolen treasure.
During the fighting, the ship had been full sail, nobody had been on lookout or manning the helm, and the ship ran aground onto the Dead Man's Chest and became stuck fast. After the fighting was over, half the crew was dead and there was not enough people alive to push the vessel back off the reef.
So the greedy murderous mutineers were stranded there on the reef until they died too, most likely from dehydration ('drink and the devil be done for the rest' means 'all we can do is have a drink in their memory, they're dead'), without any hope of escaping. And to add insult to injury, they didn't even get to keep the treasure in death because the ship DIDN'T SINK and the discovering ship salvaged the plate (gold bars) and chest of coin ('We sure go by the rule of thumb' means 'You lost it, we found it, finders keepers')
The discovering crew gave them all ocean burials, took the treasure that killed everyone, and is drinking to the memory of the good men who were murdered, and the ironic fate of their murderers, and on top of that, how both of their losses were THEIR gain.
Thank you, that was a wonderful retelling!! Where can I read more?
@@gatacelta I'm not sure, I'm just familiar with the lingo and the song. The song itself originates from the book Treasure Island, which is a great read.
Would this mean the correct lyric is "Fifteen men on the Dead Man's Chest" , and not "Fifteen men on a dead man's chest"?
@heisag The song is referring to the fact that Dead Man's Chest is a reef that looks like a rib cage sticking out of the water... so it looks like they are on a dead man's chest, literally sitting on a rib cage.
It's being a bit poetic.
I think the rule of thumb has more to do with how the treasure is divided amongst the crew, not "finders keepers"
So many lyrics left out of this version...
More was seen through a sternlight screen...
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
Chartings undoubt where a woman had been
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.
'Twas a flimsy shift on a bunker cot
With a dirk slit sheer through the bosom spot
And the lace stiff dry in a purplish blot
Oh was she wench or some shudderin' maid
That dared the knife and took the blade
By God! she had stuff for a plucky jade
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.
Fifteen men on a dead man's chest
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
Drink and the devil had done for the rest
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.
We wrapped 'em all in a mains'l tight
With twice ten turns of a hawser's bight
And we heaved 'em over and out of sight,
With a Yo-Heave-Ho! and a fare-you-well
And a sudden plunge in the sullen swell
Ten fathoms deep on the road to hell,
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
+Vamp Manson You forgot to fly away Captain.
Those verses seem like they might have been contributed by a different author from the ones used in the video.
The verses in the video form sort of a tight coherent tale of fascinated horror at otherwise competent pirates who succumbed to "drink and the devil" because they didn't check themselves before they wrecked themselves, concluding logically with the protagonists taking the treasure that those pirates would otherwise have had.
The verses you have here take on more of a tone of ghoulish bloodlust, with the random dead woman, stabbed between the tits of course, where the verse itself can't explain what she would have been doing there in a song that refers specifically to men in the chorus, title, and previous verse, and then the part about the disposal of the bodies.
I wouldn't be surprised if actual pirates had liked ghoulish bloodlust verses like that, not that I know any pirates, but if I remember right, the first verses seem more consistent with the tone of Treasure Island where I thought the song concept originated (not that Robert Louis Stevenson wrote those verses either).
So maybe there are legitimate alternate versions, with contributions by different authors with different overall song concepts? I don't mean that any of them are necessarily very recent, it just seems like different versions of what the song is about. Then again the U.S. national anthem has a verse by the same author that seems to clash with the usual modern interpretation of that song.
@@Innocent_Villain verse five is about finding a suicided or murdered maid, verse 6 is the clean up.
Thanks.🏴☠

I am reading it now😄😄😁

thanks for those nice flashing lights m8 really appreciated them watching it late at night
Probably one of my most memorable childhood songs growing up, although I'm almost positive that the Lyrics were different.
Now this makes me crave a bottle of Rum ^_^

@SamAndrew27 thats just a matter of opinion, not fact. Ive had bottles of scotch that cost hundreds of dollars and thought they were disgusting. Waste of money. Id rather have a $20 bottle of jim beam. 😂 booze snobs are the absolute worst, most lame people. Alcohol is poison made from rotting fruit and grains. There is no such thing as objectively good when it comes to taste. It just depends on your preferences. Captain morgan is fine, i like sailor jerry better.
warning. this video may give you seizures

This be a jolly good song, me hearties!
This song reminds me of Treasure Island's book. I was reading that book when i was a kid and made me wanna be pirate sooo much LOL
well done, you captured the sea shanty rythem I enjoyed your version. Thanks
this is the most crazy video I've ever seen on youtube, congrats :D
My parents downloaded me a CD of Pirate Music as a gift before we took a vacation to go to a Maritime museum; I have no idea where they got this song, and I wish I could find it and the other songs on the CD. But I have no idea who made it.
Next time I go home, I'm going to dig through my bedroom - virtually untouched by my parents since I moved out - and see if I can't find that CD.
Upload if you find it, plz :D
Kaiser Louis-Philip V Alestorm and Sunken Chest do a lot of pirate rock, pretty sure the Hollow Points do as well
Kaiser Louis-Philip V When you finally find the CD you can use an aplication for smartphone called ''SHAZAM'' it will be very usefull in order to find the name of the songs and the artist.
Kaiser Louis-Philip V you can use this website: www.youtube-mp3.org/ which, as the URL says, it converts videos to mp3 files. You just copy the URL of the video, click on convert and then click on donwload. And you got it!
Kaiser Louis-Philip V just pirate it form thepiratebay.se!

"Fifteen Orks on a dead man’s hulk,
Lookin’ down the barrel of a gun,
Gruntin’ to each other
through big, sharp teeth,
Sayin’ “This one’ll give us some fun!"
Fourteen Orks on a humie’s ship,
Killin’ anything that isn’t green,
Gruntin’ to each other
through big, sharp teeth,
Sayin’ “Times be getting’ lean!”
Thirteen Orks with the Captain’s chest,
Hopin’ to quench their greedy thirst,
Gruntin’ to each other
through big, sharp teeth
Sayin’ “I was da wun dat saw it first!”
One lone Ork left to steal the loot,
Wishin’ it hadn’t turned out so,
Gruntin’ to itself
through big, sharp teeth
Sayin’ “I shouldn't a let the pilot go!”
- Traditional shipmens’ song from the Cyclops Cluster"

This is from Treasure Island by R.L. Stevenson.

Robert Louis Stevenson wrote the original lyrics and inserted them in his iconic novel Treasure Island. He wrote only two stanzas: the "fifteen men" verse and one more, "With one man of her crew alive/Yo ho ho etc/What put to sea with seventy-five/Yo ho ho etc." I don't know who came up with the tune this video's version is sung to; the melody I learned as a child is in an audio adaptation of the book that was issued on an LP narrated by Basil Rathbone:

I read the book tranlated in greek and it metioned some lyrics in Greek and I got curious and I searched the song and I found it.
I used to many "and"s, didn't I?
+ΛΑΖΑΡΟΣ ΕΥΘΥΜΙΑΔΗΣ It's not too much if you used semi colons and commas
*Raises hand* My favourite book of all times, read it 5 times and going for the sixth time. What surprised me is that the way I read the chorus was with this melody, which is a surprise for me. As far as I know, I've never heard this song.
Doesn't it sound like "15 Miles On The Erie Cannal"?
My dad used to sing that to me when I was a kid
Got to see it again!
