Yo Ho (A Pirate's Life for Me)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Yo Ho (A Pirate's Life for Me)" (1967) is the theme song for the Pirates of the Caribbean attractions at Disney theme parks. The music was written by George Bruns with lyrics by X Atencio. Its origins are loosely derived from Robert Louis Stevenson's sea-shanty "Dead Man's Chest" found in his 1881 novel Treasure Island.
