PIRATE MEN BE WE Batten all the hatches Unfurl the jib and main Run up the colours of the cross and bones 'Cause we be pirate men (and women) CHORUS It's blow the man down And a salty jig With a patch for an eye And a peg for our feet Billy-illy-illy-illy-illy-illy oh- Pirate men be we (and women) Swab the deck me maties Make the parrot sing Wear hankies on your head and funny hats And do those pirate things CHORUS Grab the gold and silver And put it in the sand With a hook for a hand and smelly feet We are all pirate men (and women) CHORUS © John McGie
