Long John Silver |
| Long John Silver, he was on me like a rash |
| Gave him my trust, gave him my cash |
| Should have seen through him, should have seen from the start |
| There’s nothing but black in pirate’s heart |
| Long John Silver, Long John Silver |
| Don’t bet your shirt on Long John Silver |
| Long John Silver, Long John Silver |
| Don’t bet your shirt on Long John Silver |
| Long John Silver, he’s good with numbers |
| He makes hay while other folks slumber |
| Gives me the brass, and he keeps all the best |
| The better to feather his pretty little nest |
| Long John Silver, Long John Silver |
| Don’t bet your shirt on Long John Silver |
| Long John Silver, Long John Silver |
| Don’t bet your shirt on Long John Silver |
| Took all my money, my watch and chain |
| Crack his head if I see him again |
| Kind friends, warning take by me |
| Not every pirate’s sailing the sea |
| Long John Silver, Long John Silver |
| Don’t bet your shirt on Long John Silver |
| Long John Silver, Long John Silver |
| Don’t bet your shirt on Long John Silver |
