The Dreadnoughts - Katie, Bar the Door lyrics

Katie, bar the door, the Devil's here again He's looking for a savior, he's looking for a friend The Devil drinks in places you and I have never been So Katie, bar the door, and never let him in When I was just a young'un, Sarah, came without a sound She said this ship had sank and now many soldiers drowned Said that, damn I met the Devil on the banks of hostelry We took three hundred British to the bottom of the sea When I was eighteen years old, I was down in the hold Of a prison ship bound for Australia Many good men were we, on the ba*tard of the sea And the ghost of a highwayman sails, her, ya Has he cursed or damned you, or brought you to the well Or had you shuck and sully seven miles below hell For doomed trips and Coffin ships the smiling ba*tards lay Counting out their pennies to spend another day When I was eighteen years old, I was down in the hold Of a prison ship bound for Australia Many good men were we, on the ba*tard of the sea And a ghost of a highwayman sails, her, ya So, Katie, bar the door, the Devil's here again He's looking for a savior, he's looking for a friend The Devil drinks in places you and I have never been So Katie, bar the door, and never let him in
