Arrrrgh, the Pirate's life for me!

Hitting the high waves and jibbing up the sails cutlass, dispatching knaves and fools that climb the rails A scuttle up the mizzen mast the crow's nest my abode my lot with crew, so cast gold and silver in the hold Kerchief on my neck wooden, my left leg swabbing the salt from deck lust for a wench, named Peg A patch upon my eye outhaul lashed to the spar gazing at the azure sky as sailing, ever far Aye Aye captain onward thru the fog tossing the cat over the bow and whiskey, for the dog!
