Down in Cape Fear
The sky is clear
But the atmosphere
Around her is so severe
We made the trip
On a pirate ship
Cutlass on my hip
That's when she gave me the slip
We we're together on the beach
With the ghost of Edward Teach
But she was still so out of reach
Treasure in the sand
Some local boys
Thought they'd make some noise
Playing with their toys
All they managed was to annoy
That pirate crew
Set their sights on you
They liked the view
They took those boys and ran 'em through
We we're together on the beach
With the ghost of Edward Teach
But she was still so out of reach
Treasure in the sand
I guess it's time to cut and run
I've had enough of sand and sun
I only came to find some fun
Not treasure in the sand
