Long John |
|
Silver ring in his ear |
|
He's the hero, make that clear |
|
Does the same thing his father did |
|
Sailing around the |
|
CaribbeanRobing king with his talking parrot |
|
This time |
|
I think he's on the high side |
|
Scabs are forming, scraped his knee |
|
Guards are warning a bad man is free |
|
He's like electric clock that needs no winding |
|
Keeps the time without your hands |
|
Western feet they need no binding |
|
Take a barefoot run through old |
|
JapanHe's seen a thousand countries |
|
They're all the same |
|
Some men are crazy, some of the men sane |
|
But all men are ruled by a flag or a game |
|
And he knows nobody's got you |
|
If you don't, if you don't sign your name |
|
Long John |
|
Silver serves no king |
|
No land holds him, that's why |
|
He feels like just like singing |
|
Every country now and then |
|
Roars like |
|
Irish, drunk and singing |
|
Every monk will now and then |
|
Call his men to hear the |
|
Wenches night bells ringing |
