this song is dark... but has a moral...

it describes how fifteen men got drunk after finding a treasure, and died, killing each other over the treasure.

then the crew singing finds it, and shares it equally.

then they find a woman, who had probably let a man try to 'take advantage' of her, and killed him, but was then killed herself.

the crew singing then wraps the dead bodies in a sail, and casts them overboard.

the moral? sharing is good.

15 Men On The Dead Man's Chest And The Bottle Of Rum! Those 30 Dislikers They Were Looking For Dead Men's Chest And They Found Nothink :D

History lesson: This was called a sea shanty which is a song that sailors would sing to keep themselves from going mad when they did their jobs which their jobs were pretty much the same over and over every day.

Sorry I had to say that because my american history teacher told us that yesterday.

@lvladikov -- "The Derelict" is the name of the original poem. The Artist is The Jolly Rogers."

[Mesniu777]

I am the main vocalist on this recording. The artist is The Jolly Rogers. The song was originally released in 1993 on our album "Where The Hell Are We?" and was re-released on our 1997 compilation "Pirates Gold." I wrote the melody to this version in the summer of 1993. Our website is chivalry.com/jollyrogers. See more info about this song on Wikipedia.

@gnut5 I gues, You have the song as it was sung in the movie "Tresure Island". The artists must be named in the credits.

@Slavezero9 But it could also be talking about the island Dead Chest Island, AKA, Dead Man's Chest. Rumor has it that Blackbeard marooned some of his men there with only a cutlass and a bottle of run each. Only a few got off alive because they'd killed each other.
