Poem
Yo Ho!, Yo Ho! The pirates life for me The Jamaica Jewel’s sails are full on seven seas Skull and bones flying high on the main mast With a trim bow and keel my flag ship is fast At both starboard and port, my canons thunder heard from a distance, time to pillage and plunder My boots and vest are leather black with buckles gold When the sunlight reflects, landlubber’s blood runs cold A gold and turtle shell handled sword slung to my hip A stylish full brim black hat with a subtle dip I dress all in black except a plume of vermillion A chest full of treasure and pieces of eight by the million Just the sound of my name sends shivers to timbers of all I am Capitan Blood Head, on mermaid lips and ports-o-call On sand and beach Capitan Blood Head wanted alive or dead Where rivers become waterfalls posters for bounty is what’s read So the legend lives on, from Key Largo, San Juan and St Kitts cay From Trinidad and Tobago to Saint John and Montego Bay Don’t you cross Capitan Blood Head and his Scallywags And don’t even think about his favorite Sea hags ‘cause if you do, they will make you walk the plank Down to Davy Jones Locker, blub, blub, blub you sank YO HO!, YO HO! A PIRATES LIFE FOR ME Warner Baxter for contest "Sketch a Character"
