Pirate Crew:
Yo Ho, Yo Ho, Yo Ho, Yo Ho, Yo Ho
So, try the life of a thief
Just sample the life of a crook
There isn't a boy
Who won't enjoy
A-workin' for Captain Hook
The world's most famous crook
Smee:
Crook, crook, crickety-crockety
Crickety-crook
The Croc is after Captain...
Captain Hook:
As a special offer for today
I'll tell you what I'll do
All those who sign without delay
Will get a free tattoo
Why, it's like money in the bank
C'mon, join up, and I'll be frank:
Unless you do, you'll walk the plank
The choice is up to you!
Pirate Crew:
The choice is up to you!
Yo Ho, Yo Ho, Yo Ho, Yo Ho, Yo Ho
You'll love the life of a thief
You'll relish the life of a crook
There's barrels of fun for everyone
And you'll get treasures by the ton
So come and sign the book
Join up with Captain Hook!
Ensemble:
We’re told to attack a thousand ships for darling Captain Hook!
Pirate:
It seems we always make these trips to crook what we can crook.
Two Pirates:
We have to sing yo-ho, yo-ho,
Pirate:
We sing it whether we come or go!
Women:
‘Cause that’s the only song we know!
Ensemble:
We’re pirating our ships.
We work for many a thief.
We plunder for many a crook.
There’s never a gent so elegant
As the elegant Captain Hook! Yo-ho!
