Foggy London Town

Reason for Living

..

I have a reason to be living

Clearly all things I see

This is a time for giving

The perfect way to be

.

Putting away the sorrows

This is a brighter day

Swiftly I must borrow

A time to sit and pray

.

I could be sad

Or I can be mad

But that's out of reason

I'm the only one

I should be pleasing

.

So how I know

Here I go

This is my fate

It's giddy up go

I can't be late

Pete the Pirate

Black Pete the Pirate

Was a crusty ole bloke

Lop off your head with a stroke

Cutlass in hand so irate

Mean and so full of hate

.

A patch on his eye he wore

Two muskets tucked in his belt

Peg leg that thumped on the floor

His anger was truly felt

All cocked and ready for war

.

His crew never crossed ole Pete

His words were always so frank

One false move in your sleep

You might be walking the plank

.

Thirty lashes he loved to give

Cat-a-Nine Tail to the bone

A meaner man never lived

This pirate at sea is his home

.

On the bridge he boldly cries

Prime the cannon and guns

Mates them that survives

Be the lucky ones

.

Arrrggg hoist the Jolly Roger

Take all the silver and gold

Me treasure chest runs over

With all that it will hold

.

Pete writes in his captains log

Heave to you scurvy crew

Earn your daily cup of grog

We have lots of work to do

Your backside I will flog

.

If you sail the Spanish Main

Keep your fingers crossed

You will never see or meet

This crusty ole salt

Black Pirate named Pete
