O grannie have faith in him that holds you in his breast
Cast away your fears
I simple covered her backside
and wiped away her tears
grannie have faith in him that holds you in his arms
do not lose your head
Your Captain met her wiles with smiles
And got not into her bed
Goody is an actress who played the naïve girl
unable to read with profundity
I told her what was needful for women was
Innocence, silence, obedience and fecundity
Goody's vapours and her silks manipulated your Capt'n dear
and hinted at a gift
Twas then your Capt'n knew the game
Designed to cause a rift
Twixt you and your brave Capt' Sa'
T'was trickery, I realized with fury
I declined and explained to her
you would do me grievous injury
Your AC, wench has proven once again
He's a Capt'n proud and fine
Wench Goody or all her wiles failed
to part him from his concubine.
O grannie have faith in him that holds you to his breast
Not knowing will drive you to the pit
Your Capt'n has sailed a course both straight and true
There is no need to spit.
My dear Freddie ~ Mistress Goody with Wili mein,
Thy pirate heart beguiling,
...now sobbing and now smiling,
Did she undo thee?
Dear Freddie ~ Forget as she forgets.
This fairest of coquettes.
...believe her not!
Or trust her to your...sorrow
you have made me feel much better,
and have kissed tears from my eye.
I'll try to curb my love to spit,
and read my book of culture,
but lhod my wily capt'n,
it's no doubt a uselss gesture.
For you know deep in your heart of hearts,
this wench she tends to wallow,
in tabaccy, sin, and thievery,
and the Grog she loves to swollow..
So, I can't pretend to be someone,
like the famous Mistress Goody.
I'd rather sail on the bounding main,
and help you gather booty...
