Mack the Black [From The Pirate]

There's a pirate, known to fame Black Macocco was the Pirate's name In his day, the tops was he Round the Caribbean or Caribbean Sea When he sites a clipper ship Mack would board her and begin to clip First he'd grab, the ladies fair Especially those with jewels Those with jewels to spare! Especially those with jewels Those with jewels to spare Especially those with jewels Especially those with jewels Those with jewels to spare! With his ladies and his loot Next Macocco from the ship would scoot Then he'd set the ship afire...what a pretty funeral Funeral pyre! Mack the Black, what a pretty funeral Mack the Black, marvelous funeral pyre! Though the years this black Macocco Lead his pirate reign His claim to fame was as black as his name All around the Spanish Maine When he'd a make his daily rounds Gals would trail him like a pack of hounds Ev'ry night he'd have a date Ladies go to pieces Over pieces of eight. Hey! Sleep my baby, baby sleep Time for babe to be in slumber deep If you wake or cry or laugh Mack the Black will whack ya And he'll whack ya in half! Mack the black will really whack Mack the black will whack ya! Mack the black would really have to Whack ya in half! Mack the Black will really whack ya, Mack the Black will whack ya! Mack the black will whack ya And he'll whack ya! Aaaaaah! Mack was ruthless Mack was feared Perhaps it's better that he disappeared Yet I know, that he was bad I could fall in love with, Fall in love with the lad! Evening star, if you see Mack Stop his wanderings and guide him back I'll be waiting, patiently By the Caribbean or Caribbean Sea. Is that the Caribbean Sea? And if I met this famous pirate Met him face to face You think I'd run and hide my head And scream around the place Why no I'd just sashay around Displaying all my charms And soon I'd have him walk the plank Right into my arms That's what I think of Mack the Black Macocco!
