Like soldiers of fortune, we're cruising the sea

Against all the odds with the urge to be free

We're longing for freedom like an animal that's chained

We're thirsty for justice like a flower that's drained,
that's drained, yeah

Win or be drowned, so fight hard

Win or be drowned like a wild shark

Win or be drowned, so stand tight

Win or be drowned, freedom's fight, yeah

Slave drivers hunted, our cannons will speak

A frightening terror for the profit they seek

Like sea cruising phantoms on the breath of the sea

We are foiling their plans, hooked, they can't flee, can't flee, yeah

Win or be drowned, so fight hard

Win or be drowned like a wild shark

Win or be drowned, so stand tight

Win or be drowned, freedom's fight, fight

We're still full of pride, we are fighting for life

For independence we're struggling, we've got to survive

We're longing for freedom like an animal that's chained

We're thirsty for justice like a flower that's drained,
that's drained, yeah

So win or be drowned, so fight hard

Win or be drowned like a wild shark

Win or be drowned, so stand tight

Win or be drowned, freedom's fight

Win or be drowned, oh so fight hard

Win or be drowned like a wild shark

Win or be drowned, so stand tight

Win or be drowned, freedom's fight, yeah

Ooh yeah, fight
