In 1580 we sailed our little ship around the coast
Of Acrica down the Gaza strip.
We took some salty bacon and a hammock for a bed.
Then we mixed it with the Spaniards in the middle of the Med.
Well we hired our funds
Saw the pr
etty girls a comin'.
There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago
We hired some more and then we started runnin'
All down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Well Francis Drake said if you really want a fight
The best thing is to catch them in the midd
le of the night.
We hoisted anchor and powdered up the gun
Then we sailed around in circles and just waited for the fun.
Well we hired our funds
Saw the pretty girls a comin'.
There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago
We hired some more and then we started runnin'
All down the Missi
ssippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
yeah yeah yeah

Well cannon balls flew and the ship began to sink
the water started risin' so we really had to think.
And then by chance stoo
d a man as black as coal
So we grabbed him by the trousers and we plugged him in the hole
So we hired our funds
Saw the pretty girls a comin'.
There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago
We hired some more and then we started runnin'
All down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
Mexi
co, Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Well we fired from the side port and we fired from the back
And then we fired from the galley and through every little crack.
We fired so much that the cook started cooking.
Didn't have to worry so we flew the union jack.
So we hired our funds
Saw the pretty girls a com
in'.
There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago
We hired some more and then we started runnin'
All down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
We hired our funds
Saw the pretty girls a comin'.
There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago
We hired some more and then we started
runnin'
All down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.

There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago
We hired some more and then we started runnin'
All down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
