Not long ago I've heard this terrifyin' tale 'bout a cap'n of unprecedented cruelty Johnny wuz his name, by fear an' terror he commanded until his tired an' angry crew planned mutiny The cap'n wuz caught by this revenge thirsting horde Some scallywag came out with a cat o'nine tails There wuz a consultation, his punishment decided A ramble through the dark cold waters under the keel The ropes were tied tight to his ankles an' his wrists Down there wuz full o'sharks so hungry for fresh meat Ya-ha-harrrr laughed the lads loud as hell The worst evil wishes an' curses they yelled The cap'n wuz struggling underwater to survive When he tore the rope with its sharklike steely bite He clung the cord with steady hand an' then began to climb Sharkbite Johnny wuz returning to life Dead silence fell on deck then came a curse an'then a pray The cap'n came on board, he wuz back among his mates The looking in his eyes would cringe Satan himself Sharkbite Johnny wuz ready for revenge The coxswain wuz appalled, the sailors were so frightened Right there in front of them they saw the Devil in disguise The Cap'n took a cutlass then he got a loaded flint Sharkbite Johnny like a flash began to kill It wuz not long before survivors gave up They say he blew down thirteen men by himself Peace wuz then restored on board the blood covered ship Sharkbite Johnny's revenge wuz then fullfilled
