Won't Ride a Horse

from JollyRoger - Debut Album by JollyRoger

about

This song came about by us drinking in our garden on a sunny day and thinking of rhymes.

And the other half was an old song that we didn't know what to do with.

So we put them together and made 'Wont Ride a Horse'.

lyrics

Let me introduce to you the crew that we’ve amast
Bos’n Mongo lost his foot he’s going nowhere fast
Captain Salmon’s at the helm with Weasel at his side
When we are all in one place the taps they will run dry


Won’t stop drinking all the pirates beer
And I won’t stop drinking all the pirates beer
Won’t stop drinking all the pirates beer

And we stop drinking all the pirates beer


The day was drawing to a close, our destination set
This plan to rob this english boat was anything but wet
To sail across the glassy sea, use cover of the night
To board this vessel seamlessly and give them all a fright


Won’t play a song when the cap’n’s near
And I won’t play a song when the cap’n’s near
Won’t play a song when the cap’n’s near

And I Won’t play a song when the cap’n’s near


Some shore leave that will do me well our ship pulls into port
A night of rum out with the lads our drinking is a sport
To make it to the inn to sleep I need a noble steed
The phillies have been taken but I’ll find just what I need


Won’t ride a horse but I’ll ride a deer
And I won’t ride a horse but I’ll ride a deer
Won’t ride a horse but I’ll ride a deer

And I Won’t ride a horse but I’ll ride a deer


Instrumental - Solo


Won’t stop drinking all the pirates beer

And I won’t stop dancing like a musketeer

Won’t sing a long coz the words ain’t clear

And I won’t share a boat with a mutineer

Wont play a song when the cap’n’s near

And I won't ride a horse but I'll ride a deer

Won't ride a horse but I'll ride a deer


Cus JollyRoger’s here and we need a beer.
