Just past the shoal, there's a stretch of black water
That runs from Malone's Cove to Kerrigan's Isle
Strange things float through there, and not with the tide
You'll see them too, if you wait for awhile
You can't make their names in the mist and the moonlight
Sometimes there's three ships, sometimes there's four
Sometimes there's voices that'll freeze up your heart
From the dead and cursed crew that'll never see shore
Sometimes they're close, you can see their black sockets
Golden rings, and frozen smiles
No explanation they give for their passage
As they ride on their ghost-ships past Kerrigan's Isle
Sails all in tatters, beams all a-rotting
None at the wheel, but they still clear the shoal
Long past their leavin' you're still there a-standin
Your mind disbelievin', your blood runnin' cold
If they make their landfall, I'll take my whole family
And tell them to run and ne'er look back around
To see if they're chasin', or takin' up spades
To bury themselves in the deep solid ground
Sometimes they're close, you can see their black sockets
Golden rings, and frozen smiles
No explanation they give for their passage
As they ride on their ghost-ships past Kerrigan's Isle
Just past the shoal, there's a stretch of black water
That runs from Malone's Cove to Kerrigan's Isle
Strange things float through there, and not with the tide
You'll see them too, if you wait for awhile
You can't make their names in the mist and the moonlight
Sometimes there's three ships, sometimes there's four
Sometimes there's voices that'll freeze up your heart
From the dead and cursed crew that'll never see shore
Sometimes they're close, you can see their black sockets
Golden rings, and frozen smiles
No explanation they give for their passage
As they ride on their ghost-ships past Kerrigan's Isle
Sometimes they're close, you can see their black socket
Golden rings, and their frozen smiles
No explanation they give for their passage
As they ride on their ghost-ships past Kerrigan's Isle
