Anne Bonny

Anne Bonny- Pirate Anne Bonny preferred the pirate’s life She turned her back on being a wife And cleverly hid her womanhood In buccaneer’s guise ignoring all good She sailed the seas as gallantly as the rest Sadistic and callous, she couldn’t care less She swore and drank with the rest of the crew Matching strength and skill with energy anew One day a crew mate spotted her boobs I’ll kill so I will, he was ready to abuse Out came her cutlass as quick as a flash The poor man had no-where to dash He went overboard to his watery grave She gleefully watched and gave him a wave Her sword finesse had definitely paid off No further hassles, her shipmates laid off The captain was her friend and lover who could want someone much tougher Until one day after a successful quest In jewels and bounty, they got the best Too much rum and too much grog Too drunk to fight, they’ll soon get flogged A sloop came alongside to retrieve the cache Anne and friend waded in for a bash They battled bravely for more than an hour Alas their fate proved rather dire The reprisal had been very well fought But not good enough, they were all caught The bezzlers would suffer a horrible death Free, the women went, relief in their breath They were preggers you see so had a reprieve Anne’s story rests here, it seems hard to believe But her ending is still guessed at by all Now her spirit rides, the waves as are her call
