Bosun Bill was known throughout the port
A truly dreadful pirate who was always getting caught
Not one scheme for stealing he could hatch
'Cause someone would spot the treasure he'd got
And Bill, they'd snatch

One day Bill awoke laying on a distant beach
The last of his grog was just out of reach
He groped around with trembling hands
And struck something in the sand

He'd stumbled upon a part
Of an ancient chart
Stained and torn, the old map told
The way to find a stash of buried gold

So, Bosun Bill set out to find a crew
But everyone he asked repliеd, "I'll never sail with you!"
'Til at last, he pliеd a man with ale
To lend him his craft, a rickety raft
Then Bill set sail
All by himself, Bill trembled in the dark
He lost both his boots and his hat to a shark
He followed the chart 'til at last he saw
The gleam of a far off shore
The trail led into a cave, silent as the grave
Bill stood gaping at what he saw
A hoard of treasure piled from roof to floor

Bosun Bill stuffed treasure into his sack
He loaded up the boat, but heard a mighty crack
He'd taken too much plunder when he should have kept it light
The raft and all the gold sank out of sight

Bosun Bill let out a terrible curse
He'd had a chance at glory but he'd only come out worse
To this day, he's trapped on the island still
Not very clever, worst pirate ever
It's Bosun Bill
