A Bad Day On the High Seas - Repost

Ye dirty son of a sea dog Ye rotten pile o' bones Ye'll see the end o' me cutlass I'll intrrroduce ye to Davey Jones Ye'll not be getn me treasure For Ive the map ye see Ill set ye adrift in a leaky skiff And food for fish ye'll be Me chest be filled wi diamonds And rubies, pearls and such But ye'll be treadn water Me treasure ye wont touch My ode to pirates everywhere..
