Lyrics
Once I Met a Pirate by James Hampton
Once I met a pirate
His name was Pete
He had a golden beard
And smelly feet
He jumped into his pirate ship
And waved goodbye to me
Then he stamped his feet
And clapped his hands
And sailed across the sea
Oi!
Once I met a pirate
His name was John
He sailed the seven seas
With pyjamas on
He jumped into his pirate ship
And waved goodbye to me
Then he blinked his eyes
And touched his nose
And sailed across the sea
Oi!
Once I met a pirate
His name was Sam
His favourite food for lunch
Was seaweed jam
He jumped into his pirate ship
And waved goodbye to me
Then he reached up high
And touched the ground
And sailed across the sea
Oi!
Then I met three pirates
One last time
Pete, John and Sam
Are friends of mine
They jumped into their pirate ship
And waved goodbye to me
Then they stamped their feet
And clapped their hands
And blinked their eyes
And touched their nose
And reached up high
And touched the ground
And sailed across the sea
Oi!
