ABOUT PIRATES

ABOUT PIRATES When Captain Kidd was just a kid He used to get real rough; He made 'em walk the plank, he did An all that sort of stuff He was a pirate bold. that guy. And feared the whole world over, From Sandy Hook to Spitzenburg. From Tombstone clear to Dover. He scuttled ships and guzzied rum From morning until night, But, even if he just got tour-bitS He always staged fight The captain grabbed lot of loot Flying the Jolly Roger. But he always threw in scrap
 to boot,
 For he was a game old cOdger. The sea is rid of pirates now. The Captain kidds have went. To see a pirate fight nowadays You pay a whole months rent. You walked the plank in the cap

 Or got good keel-haulins; But now you sit on the plank and
 pay
 To watch two champions stallins.

But one more game is needed TO
complete the schedule. This is the
