Mysteries Of The Marianas

By Jimmy Shoals · The Saltwater Sessions: Midnight Offerings

Mysteries of the Marianas, (where legends come alive), Lost souls dance, under moon and tide. In the depths of the Marianas, where the waters swirl, Stories of ghosts and legends unfurl. Pull up a chair and grab some rum, The wildest of tales have only begun. Out in the Marianas, where the waters run deep, Ghost ships gather while sailors sleep. Rum flows free, and the crew's all there, With tales of treasure and lost ships to share. A pirate leans close, his grin spread wide, Ever hear 'bout the Kraken's bride? Mysteries of the Marianas, (where legends come alive), Lost souls dance, under moon and tide. Ghosts swap tales with sailors that roam, They'll party 'til dawn, then drift back home. Raise your glass, let's make a toast, (To every sailor, pirate, and ghost!) A captain claimed he sailed the Devil's Mile, (the devil's mile) Vanished for years and returned with a smile. Said he drank with Blackbeard under the waves, And sang with ghosts in ocean caves. (Boo!) They say in these waters, nothing's quite real, It's all a dream on a ship's spinning wheel. Mysteries of the Marianas, (where legends come alive), Lost souls dance, under moon and tide. Ghosts swap tales with sailors that roam, They'll party 'til dawn, then drift back home. Raise your glass, let's make a toast, (To every sailor, pirate, and ghost!) Who sails these waters without fear? ("Pirates and sailors with plenty of beer!") What lies beneath the rolling sea? ("The Marianas' secrets, wild and free!") What keeps the ghosts coming back each night? ("The pull of rum and the moon's pale light!") Raise your cups, let's drink to the night, Where nothing's real 'til the morning light! Mysteries of the Marianas, (where legends come alive), Lost souls dance, under moon and tide. Ghosts swap tales with sailors that roam, They'll party 'til dawn, then drift back home. Raise your glass, let's make a toast, (To every sailor, pirate, and ghost!) So if you ever sail through the Marianas deep, Where the sea's secrets never sleep, Keep one eye open, and your rum bottle tight, For you'll never know who'll join you tonight.
