Pirate Song - George Harrison




Canción de Eric Idle, donde George Harrison hace mofa de la acusación de plagio con respecto a la canción He's so Fine, de The Chiffons. Finalmente, George Harrison incluyó este single en All things must pass (1970), su primer álbum en solitario. El beatle perdió el pleito casi seis años después de haber alcanzado su primer no. 1, al margen de The Beatles, gracias a la mencionada canción.

Aquí la letra de la canción:

Oh! I'd like to be a pirate
A pirate's life for me
All my friends are pirates
And sail the B. B. sea
I've got a Jolly Roger
It's black and white and vast
So! Get out of your Skull and Crossbones
And I'll run it up your mast

With a yo-ho-ho
And a ha-ha-ha
And a ye-hee-hee-ha-ha-hum
With a yo-ho-ho
And a ya-ha-ha
And a yum-yum-yum-jum-jum
I've got a Jolly Roger
It's black and white and vast
So! Get out of your Skull and Crossbones
And I'll run it up your mast

Altogether! I'd like to be a pirate
A pirate's life for me
All my friends are pirates
And sail the B. B. sea
I've got a Jolly Roger
It's black and white and vast
So! Get out of your Skull and Crossbones
And I'll run it up your mast

With a yo-ho-ho
And a he-he-he
And a ye-hee-hee-ha-ha-hum
With a yo-ho-ho
And a ya-ha-ha
And a yum-yum-yum-jum-jum
I've got a Jolly Roger
It's black and white and vast
So! Get out of your Skull and Crossbones
And I'll run it up your mast
