A Pirates Life For Me

I want to be a captain From the old salty sea I want to steal booty Quickly and then flee I need me a peg leg So that my body can stand And a sharp pointy hook In place of me hand I need me a ship One with black sails Throw on some cannons They better not fail I be needin’ a crew One that is strong But better be quiet When me plan does go wrong A top my shoulder I need me a parrot One that won’t squawk He be worth 14 carat You be readin’ me sea chant It be a catchy tune I hope ye enjoyed it Now you owe me gold doubloons If ye don’t pay up It’ll be a walk on the plank Or perhaps a quick dip In me shark infested tank
