In Christiansted
(Bertie Higgins, Mickey Newberry)
Once upon a time
Back in ninety-nine
I sailed a ship so fine, straight line
To Christiansted
Just a brown-eyed boy
Filled with pride and joy
To finally see St. Croix
Ahoy, Christiansted
Where they smoke that rock
Then they walk that walk
You keep your latches locked if your dory be docked
In Christiansted
()
Christiansted, oh Christiansted
If your dory be docked in Christiansted
Dominican whore
Scratching at my door
She's coming 'round for more, as the cannons roar
In Christiansted
In Christiansted
Home boy said
You touch her locks of dread and you'll be dead
In Christiansted
()
Christiansted, oh Christiansted
You'll be dead in Christiansted
We danced all night
To the fiddle and the pipe
We made love in the morninglight
All, right, Christiansted
Through the window the bastard came
Screaming out her name
Like a banshee in pain
He came, in Christiansted
()
Christiansted, oh Christiansted
He came in Christiansted
Quicksilver was the knife
As it flashed before his life
Blood ran crimson red, as he lay dead
In Christiansted
So I stole her away
We sailed that day
No more play for the pirates pay
Hey! Christiansted
()
Christiansted, oh Christiansted
Hey! Christiansted
Christiansted, oh Christiansted
Hey! Christiansted
