Yo-Ho-Ho

[Atreides]

yo ho ho, and a bottle of rum
a pirate's life is the total sum
of the drum'n pulse of the beat'n sun
and that sun, beats as one
yo ho ho, and a bottle of rum

yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
no man's free, as he could be
Fiddle dee dee, oh they never see
good and evil've naught'n liberty
yo ho ho, and a bottle of rum

yo ho ho, and a bottle of gin
life is the mess, we all are in
and it's no sin, if you begin
to be wild outside, that you may win
yo ho ho, and a bottle of gin

yo ho ho, and a bottle of shine
no soul wants to be left behind
behind the lines, and when it's time
for heaven on earth, will we toe the line
yo ho ho, and a bottle of shine

yo ho ho, with a heart of steel
not every man can really feel
here's the deal, I'll tell you real
-any man can be another's meal
yo ho ho, with a heart of steel

yo ho ho, with an heart of lead
the sleeping world is the land of the dead
and if you dread, the morpheus bed
then don't be led with only your head
yo ho ho, with a heart of lead

yo ho ho, and a bottle of rum
yo ho ho, till we reach the sun
yo ho ho, for each and every one
yo ho ho, until kingdom come
yo, ho, ho, till our, trek is, done-

I'm relatively new to the forum Atreides and I've a lot of good threads to pore over but I always check out your creative posts in recent weeks, while having serious truths inside they really are entertaining and lighten me up at the same time. Well done, and keep 'em coming

I want to sing it by a campfire ;)

Sure:) put it to music, it would be a highlight at the next Fellowship get-together:)

Another cool piece of prose.


The following to be read in cornish accent.

Shiver me timbers , Atreides lad
that piece of prose , were not half bad.

And if a mans prose shows some of his measure
Then oo arr me lad you´ve plenty of treasure.

meet you down at the crashy rocks inn at 7

 

[Atreides]

Ah, Shiver me timbers, an rat'l me bones
t'isn't smoke tha yer blowin, nor jellied up scones
i'll split me treasure wit'cha, right down the mid
for that right nice comment that'cha just did
i'm no good at maths, an I'll try'in be sporty
equal halfs is like what, t'isn't 60/40?
