In 1695, he captured the Grand Mughal's treasure ship, the Ganj-i-Sawai, sparking the world's first global manhunt. Unlike Blackbeard or Kidd, Avery was never caught—he vanished with his loot, leaving behind only myths and rumors. ​🎵 Download the high-quality audio track here: https://ko-fi.com/s/e1444bcd95 ​📜 LYRICS: Haul away! Haul away! ​ We rotted in La Coruña, not a penny to our name, The Spanish slept in silence, but we were seeking fame! Young Henry stepped upon the deck, a plan within his eyes, "No more we serve the Emperor, today the Phoenix rise!" We took the ship Charles Second, as the moon began to flee, Renamed her distinct Fancy, and we aimed her for the sea! ​ Forty-six guns loaded, a crew of mutineers, We sail for Madagascar, to feed on merchant fears! Let the East India Company write their laws in ink, We’ll write ours in cannon fire, and watch the empires sink! ​ Oh, Henry Avery! The King of Pirates he! With a red flag flying high, for all the world to see! Some men hang in chains of iron, rotting in the bay, But Long Ben Avery, he simply sailed away! Yeah, Long Ben Avery, he took it all away! ​ HEY! HEY! ​ The Red Sea churned beneath us, the Pilgrim Fleet drew near, The Ganj-i-Sawai looming, the prize of all the year! With gold and silver sequins, and diamonds in the hold, The Grand Moghul's own treasure, a story to be told. We snapped her mainmast violently, the smoke obscured the sun, And when the blood had settled, the greatest heist was done! ​ The world declared a manhunt, the first the earth had known, A price upon our captain’s head, to bring him to the throne. Captain Kidd was hanged for less, in a cage of rusted steel, But Avery is a phantom, that the law can never feel. ​ He vanished in the shadows, back to Devon’s rocky shore, Or maybe died a beggar, poor and sick and sore? But I say he’s laughing, with a tankard in his hand, The only thief in history to beat the law of land! ​ Oh, Henry Avery! The King of Pirates he! With a red flag flying high, for all the world to see! Some men hang in chains of iron, rotting in the bay, But Long Ben Avery, he simply sailed away! Yeah, Long Ben Avery, he took it all away! ​ He took the gold... He took the ship... He gave the King the slip... King of Pirates. ​Creative Process: 🎨 Artwork: Generated with Gemini AI.
