Recountal

Ohh (Ha Ha… That's right mate!)

Here in me life as a sailor I live upon the sea
Me hold is filled with treasure and me heart is filled with glee
I fought in a hundred battles, and won about ninety-three
But in that dreaded seven I was drunk as I could be

(Hey hey)

Tiddly Aye, uh dye, uh dye dee dye dee dye
Tiddle opay dope a dope a dope a dye, dye, dye

I once knew a girl from England, jubbilies nice and round
Not a better girl in England for me to ever be found
I went to rolling her in the hay and the secret that I found
Was her husband came home early and he chased me out of town

(Ohh)

Tiddly Aye, uh dye, uh dye dee dye dee dye
Tiddle opay dope a dope a dope a dye, dye, dye

I've been called a nasty pirate, one from the sea to fear
A buccaneer, a brigand, cutthroat and a privateer.
I'm just a carefree sot among ye lot, I've made port at this here peer
And I'd rather have a bottle of rum than a keg full of beer.

(Hey)

Tiddly Aye, uh dye, uh dye dee dye dee dye
Tiddle opay dope a dope a dope a dye, dye, dye

I've had me share of kitty and I've had me share of fights
Sailed from Ireland to Singapore and gloated with due rights
I've hardened me heart to the lassies and never once lost sight of me goals
But I've fathered a bunch of bastards from Caribbean to the Shoals.

(Oh No)
