| [00:11.58] | In 1580we sailed our little ship around the coast Of Africa |
| [00:14.89] | down the Gaza strip |
| [00:16.69] | We took some salty bacon and a hammock for a bed |
| [00:19.11] | Then we mixed it with the Spaniards in the middle of the Med |
| [00:21.85] | Well,we hired our funds,saw the pretty girls a comin' |
| [00:24.38] | There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago |
| [00:26.96] | We hired some more and then we started runnin' |
| [00:29.11] | All down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico |
| [00:31.62] | Mexico,Mexico,Mexico,Mexico |
| [00:42.55] | Well,Francis Drake said if you really want a fight |
| [00:44.97] | The best thing is to catch them in the middle of the night |
| [00:47.72] | We hoisted anchor and powdered up the gun |
| [00:50.12] | Then we sailed around in circles and just waited for the fun |
| [00:52.98] | Well,we hired our funds,saw the pretty girls a comin' |
| [00:55.59] | There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago |
| [00:58.25] | We hired some more and then we started runnin' |
| [00:59.95] | All down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico |
| [01:02.82] | Sing!Mexico,Mexico,Mexico,Mexico |
| [02:01.36] | Well,cannon balls flew and the ship began to sink, |
| [02:03.76] | The water stated risin'so we really had to think |
| [02:06.57] | And then by chance stood a man as black as coal |
| [02:09.17] | So we grabbed him by the trousers and we plugged him in the hole |
| [02:12.02] | Well,we hired our funds,saw the pretty girls a comin' |
| [02:14.65] | There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago |
| [02:17.30] | We hired some more and then we started runnin' |
| [02:19.13] | All down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico |
| [02:21.46] | Sing!Mexico,Mexico,Mexico,Mexico |
| [02:32.89] | Well,we fired from the side port and we fired from the back |
| [02:35.31] | And then we fired from the galley and through every little crack |
| [02:38.19] | We fired so much that the cook started cooking |
| [02:40.10] | Didn't have to worry,so we flew the union jack |
| [02:43.61] | Well,we hired our funds,saw the pretty girls a comin' |
| [02:46.25] | There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago |
| [02:49.01] | We hired some more and then we started runnin' |
