Jolly Rodger

My momma said:
 "Dead men don't tell no tales son.
 Don't listen to the siren song.
 Stay away from the rocky coast -
 I don't want to meet your ghost."
 ...and I said:
 "Oh momma don't you worry now.
 ...escaped the gallows more than God's allowed,
 and I don't fear him.
 No I don't fear him."
 Set sail across the seven seas.
 I left my home to feel this breeze.
 Clutch your pearls,
 it's all black leather and black magic.
 A pirate's life for me.
 I met a voodoo lady, she said:
 "Oh boy I could make you happy.
 I've got just what you need for those blisters on your feet.
 Something to fix the salt that you bleed.
 I've got a chest of gold of which stories were told.
 But beware, if you stick with me, you could never be free.
 Set sail across the seven seas.
 I left my home to feel this breeze.
 Clutch your pearls,
 it's all black leather and black magic.
 A pirate's life for me
