The

songwriter Xavier Atencio, Yo Ho was originally penned in
1966 for the 1967 opening of the attraction. |
The
song is now well-known for its starring role not only in
the Pirates of the Caribbean attractions, but also in the
blockbuster film trilogy. |

| Lyrics |
| |
| A |
|
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we rifle, and loot,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
We kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot,
Drink up me 'earties, yo ho. |
| |
| B |
Yo ho, yo ho, a
pirate's life for me.
We extort, we pilfer, we filch, and sack,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
Maraud and embezzle, and even high-jack,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho. |
| |
| C |
Yo ho, yo ho, a
pirate's life for me.
We kindle and char, inflame and ignite,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
We burn up the city, we're really a fright,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho. |
| |
| D |
We're rascals,
scoundrels, villans, and knaves,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
We're devils and black sheep, really bad eggs,
Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho. |
