Mack The Black

There's a pirate, known to fame

Black Macocco was the Pirate's name

In his day, the tops was he

Round the Caribbean or Caribbean Sea

When he sites a clipper ship

Mack would board her and begin to clip

First he'd grab, the ladies fair

Especially those with jewels,

Those with jewels to spare!

Especially those with jewels,

Those with jewels to spare.

Especially those with jewels,

Especially those with jewels,

Those with jewels to spare!

With his ladies and his loot,

Next Macocco from the ship would scoot

Then he'd set the ship afire...what a pretty funeral

Funeral pyre!

Mack the Black, what a pretty funeral,

Mack the Black, marvelous funeral pyre!

Though the years this black Macocco

Lead his pirate reign

His claim to fame was as black as his name

All around the Spanish Maine.

When he'd a make his daily rounds

Gals would trail him like a pack of hounds

Ev'ry night he'd have a date Ladies go to pieces,

Over Pieces of eight.

Hey!

Sleep my baby, baby sleep

Time for babe to be in slumber deep

If you wake or cry or laugh

Mack the Black will whack ya

And he'll whack ya in half!

Mack the black will really whack

Mack the black will whack ya!

Mack the black would really have to

Whack ya in half!

Mack the Black will really whack ya,

Mack the Black will whack ya!

Mack the black will whack ya

And he'll whack ya!

Aaaaaah! Mack was ruthless,

Mack was feared

Perhaps it's better that he disappeared

Yet I know, that he was bad

I could fall in love with,

Fall in love with the lad!

Evening star, if you see Mack

Stop his wanderings and guide him back

I'll be waiting, patiently

By the Caribbean or Caribbean Sea.

Is that the Caribbean Sea?

And if I met this famous pirate

Met him face to face

You think I'd run and hide my head

And scream around the place

Why no I'd just sashay around

Displaying all my charms

And soon I'd have him walk the plank

Right into my arms

That's what I think of Mack the Black Macocco!
