Fifteen men on the dead man’s chest,
Yo ho ho, and a bottle of rum!
Drink and the devil had done for the rest,
Yo ho ho, and a bottle of rum!
Yo ho ho, and a bottle of rum!
Drink and the devil had done for the rest,
Yo ho ho, and a bottle of rum!

"Yo ho ho" originated as a nautical term used by sailors to synchronize heavy group labor, such as cranking up the anchor, hauling sails, etc.
Robert Louis Stevenson made the chant famous in the novel _Treasure Island_, using as the chorus of the fictional song "Dead Man's Chest". Stevenson provided no verses, but Young E Allison expanded the chorus into the poem "Derelict". Henry Waller added music to the poem for a Broadway _Treasure Island_.
"Dead Man's Chest" is an uninhibited island in the Caribbean.
