A Sea Dogs Tale
I leave upon the morning's tide
For a man must prove his worth.
There awaits a sailing ship,
And I am pledged a berth.
I'll sail across the seven seas
For a sea dog I will be.
I'll look upon exotic lands
And all their mysteries.
I'll see ghostly galleons,
Mermaids too, I'm told
Discover desert islands,
With hoardes of buried gold.
We may fight with pirates
And send them all to hell,
When my sailing days are over,
What tales I'll have to tell.
