Oh there once was a lad
By the name o’ Johnny Watters
And he were a pirate bold
All the merchantmen feared
The pirate Johnny Watters
Though he was just 6 years old
A mighty big ship had young Johnny Watters
And she carried many a gun
By the crew of that ship
And the pirate Johnny Watters
Many dastardly deeds were done
CHORUS 1:
Sing Ho! for the dreaded pirate
Johnny Watters
Sing Ho! for the pirate bold
Sing Ho! for the legend of the dread Johnny Watters
A pirate just 6 years old
He plundered and pillaged,
Did young Johnny Watters
Sent men-o-war to Davy Jones
No prisoners took the pirate Johnny Watters
He were deaf to their howls and moans
There never was a storm that fazed Johnny Watters
Nor fog nor the darkest night
He wasn't afeard of naught, Johnny Watters
And he dearly loved a good fight
[REPEAT CHORUS 1]
One day while a-sailing his ship
Johnny Watters met a foe he could not defeat
That foe got the better of the pirate Johnny Watters
With demands he was forced to meet
Shall I tell-ee who bested the pirate Johnny Watters?
It were none other than his Mum!
Get yer carcass out o’ that tub, Johnny Watters
For your bedtime it has come!
CHORUS 2:
Sing Ho! for the dreaded pirate Johnny Watters
Sing Ho! for the pirate's mum
Sing Ho! for the close of a jolly sea voyage
And our bed when the day is done
Sing Ho! for the close of a jolly sea voyage
And our bed when the day is done
