Corsairs (French: corsaire) were privateers, authorized to conduct raids on shipping of a nation at war with France, on behalf of the French Crown. Seized vessels and cargo were sold at auction, with the corsair captain entitled to a portion of the proceeds. Although not French Navy personnel, corsairs were considered legitimate combatants in France (and allied nations), provided the commanding officer of the vessel was in possession of a valid Letter of Marque (fr. Lettre de Marque or Lettre de Course), and the officers and crew conducted themselves according to contemporary admiralty law. By acting on behalf of the French Crown, if captured by the enemy, they could claim treatment as prisoners of war, instead of being considered pirates. Because corsairs gained a swashbuckling reputation, the word "corsair" is also used generically as a more romantic or flamboyant way of referring to privateers, or even to pirates. The Barbary pirates of North Africa as well as Ottomans were sometimes called "Turkish corsairs".

You've been standing by yourself
All along the line
I've been watching someone else
'Cause I think that you're too fine
And it seems that you
Are lonely too
And I'd love to kiss you
But love won't do
'Cause I know
You'd take my heart away
And I know
You'd make my heart a slave
You've been seeing a friend of mine
No one knows the score
I've been stuck in a dead end life
And I couldn't take it no more
And it seems that you
Are lonely too
And I'd love to kiss you
But love won't do
'Cause I know
You'd take my heart away
And I know
