(corrected the misspelled title. Thanks, Gary!)
I was just thinking about how I haven't heard any new Pirate songs lately, when the idea suddenly hit me....
"Boo, Hoo, Hoo and a Bottle of Rum"
Anyone here care to take a stab at lyrics for this inevitable, multi-platinum single we're about to drop?? :-D

Should that be 'Pirate ditty'? 'Ditty', a short, simple Song.
Not 'diddy' which is the name of the accused felon much in the news now.
"Boo! Hoo! Hoo! And A Bottle Of Rum" October 2, 2024
Verse I
We end up crying, singing our blues,
with a bottle of rum, and nothing to do!
I end up laughing, and so do you,
in the late evening sunset, with sand in our shoes!
We shake hands and promise, whatever shall come,
we'll Boo! Hoo! Hoo! And A Bottle Of Rum!
Chorus
Oh! Boo! Hoo! Hoo! And A Bottle Of Rum!
It's been the way, in the land we hail from!
A lifetime of worries, o'er what ne'er comes!
Oh! Boo! Hoo! Hoo! And A Bottle Of Rum!
Verse II
We end up crying! Nought better to do,
with a bottle of rum, 'twixt just us two!
You end up laughing, at things we've done,
in delirious stumbles, the heat of the sun!
We swear allegiance, 'til our journey's done!
We'll Boo! Hoo! Hoo! And A Bottle Of Rum!
Oh! Boo! Hoo! Hoo! And A Bottle Of Rum!
It's been the way, in the land we hail from!
A lifetime of worries, o'er what ne'er comes!
Oh! Boo! Hoo! Hoo! And A Bottle Of Rum!
Bridge
Silence, save snoring! Our day is done!
Coda
Oh! Boo! Hoo! Hoo! And A Bottle Of Rum!
Oh! Boo! Hoo! Hoo! And A Bottle Of Rum!
There will always be another song to be written. Someone will write it. Why not you? www.garyeandrews.com

Run it through Suno and tell it that it's a children's pirate song and you'll get a funny result. Do you have a melody in mind Gary?
