The Pregnant Sailor's Wife
Thar be me captain
The leader of my crew.
He is a mighty man
Bold, Strong, and True.
I be his shipmate
The cook, swab, and crew.
I am but his deckhand
Loving, Affectionate, and True.
In me belly be our seed
The mascot of our trade.
He is but a boy now
A symbol of a love that will never fade.
