Pirate's Lullaby

Forget the comfort of the hearth and glistening dell
You have a sea to ride on swell
Ta-dum dilly day oh!
Ta-dum dilly dilly day!
Forget the blue eyes you once knew
And grab the weary ropes too
Ta-dum dilly day oh!
Ta-dum dilly dilly day!
Time to leave for parts unknown
And dance as your destiny’s flown
Ta-dum dilly day oh!
Ta-dum dilly dilly day!
No time to wonder of returns any more
No time to confirm regrets by score
Ta-dum dilly day oh!
Ta-dum dilly dilly day!
The ride’s begun, land is done
See to the sea
To the sea!
