The Corsairs - Isn't it Grand to be Bloody Well Dead!

The Corsairs, a musical group which has itself passed beyond the Edge of the World, so this is a most fitting song to dedicate to the memory of that beloved Band of Pirates (not a phrase often heard) who brought a bit of cheer to our Texas Celtic gatherings (and who also made off with a bit of our money and a few of our women, but that is a story for another time).

With one hand over my wallet, and my back to the wall, I hoist a tankard to the Pirates that we love best (more than any other pirates any way), the Corsairs!

  • I miss the boys so much, but I just have to say my grand da (Boston Irish to the bone) sang this to me as a Lullaby.

  • @padraicohare yeah, thats true, they don't sing it like they're begging for laughs, but the clancy brothers do sing it like its a dirge, which doesn't appeal to everyone.

  • Like the Clancy Brothers better. The Clany Bros doesn't sing it like they're begging for people to laugh at them.....

  • Haha, my 8th grade teacher sang this to us.
