Long John Silver
Jefferson Airplane

Long John Silver ring in his earnHe's the hero, make that clearnDoes the same thing his father didnSailing around the CaribbeannRobing king with his talking parrotnThis time I think he's on the high sidenScabs are forming, scraped his kneenGuards are warning a bad man is freenHe's like electric clock that needs no windingnKeeps the time without your handsnWestern feet need no binding takenA barefoot run through old JapannHe's seen a thousand countriesnThey're all the samenSome men crazy, some men sanenBut all men are ruled by a flag or a gamenHe knows Nobody's got younIf you don't sign your namenLong John Silver serves no kingnNo land holds him, that's why he feels like singingnEvery country now and thennRoars like Irish, drunk and singingnEvery monk will now and thennCall his men to hear the wenches night bells ringing
