And sEmo it began
The story how Elzevir would look after John as hDis own sEmon
And the smAmugglers betrayed on Moonfleet Bay
By MEmaskew looking now at DElzevir's gEmun
Then a shGot rang out in the mDorning light
MEmaskew fell a hBole between his eyes
But it was hEmis own men who brAmought him down
And they Balso got poor JEmohn, oh, they Dalso shot poor JEmohn
COoGoh, it's a dDangerous wEmorld boys
COoGoh, with the smDuggling crEmew
COoGoh, it's a dDangerous lEmife boys
WhEmen you're rDunning from the RevenEmue
WhEmen you're rDunning from the RevenEmue
And sEmo to escape it came now for Elzevir to pick up the boy
And cDarry him awEmay
For he cAmould not walk with a bullet in the leg
And they mEmade for the safety of the PDurbeck cEmave
T'was thGere that John would rDead one night
The wEmords in the locket by cBandlelight
For the BEmible verses hAmeld the key to BlBackbeard's hidden trEmeasure
At the bDottom of a Castle wEmell
COoGoh, it's a dDangerous wEmorld boys
COoGoh, in a smDuggler's lEmife
COoGoh, in the DDays of our Emage boys
