(Verse 1)
On the shores of South Carolina,
Beneath the moon’s soft glow,
A pirate sailed into the harbor,
His heart with love aglow.
His ship had weathered storms untold,
Through battles fierce and grand,
But in the eyes of his red-haired beauty,
He found his promised land.
(Chorus)
Oh, red-haired beauty, fair and true,
With eyes like emeralds, skies of blue,
In your arms, I’ve found my home,
On the shores of South Carolina.
(Verse 2)
She danced upon the sandy beach,
Her laughter like a song,
He knew right then, within his soul,
He’d loved her all along.
With each gentle breeze that kissed her hair,
He swore an oath anew,
To cherish her, to hold her close,
To love her through and through.
(Chorus)
Oh, red-haired beauty, fair and true,
With eyes like emeralds, skies of blue,
In your arms, I’ve found my home,
On the shores of South Carolina.
(Bridge)
No treasure trove or doubloons bright,
Could ever match this sight,
Of love’s sweet bloom beneath the moon,
On this Carolina night.
(Verse 3)
So hand in hand, they walked the shore,
Their hearts forever bound,
No more the lonely pirate’s life,
True love had now been found.
And as they watched the sunrise,
Painting colors in the sky,
He knew that in her arms he’d stay,
Until the day he’d die.
(Chorus)
Oh, red-haired beauty, fair and true,
With eyes like emeralds, skies of blue,
In your arms, I’ve found my home,
On the shores of South Carolina.
(Outro)
So here’s to love, as endless as the sea,
Here’s to you, my red-haired beauty,
In your arms, I’ll always be,
On the shores of South Carolina, forever free.
