Billy Bones Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Good morning to you Billy Bones, Billy Bones
Good morning to you charming Billy
When I last saw your hands they was brown as my own
Now up through white fingers the grasses have grown
And what of this cutlass so carelessly thrown
On the ground, Billy Bones, Billy Bones

[Chorus]
Bones, Bones, Bones, Billy Bones
Send him off to Davy Jones
Of rum and gold and wenches bold
You've had your last fill Billy Bones

[Verse 2]
Good morning to you Billy Bones, Billy Bones
Good morning to you charming Billy
That chest that you're laying on once sailed the salt sea
That's why you, I, and Flint did agree
To divvy the contents up into three
Gold and jewels, Billy Bones, Billy Bones

[Chorus]
Bones, Bones, Bones, Billy Bones
Send him off to Davy Jones
Of rum and gold and wenches bold
You've had your last fill Billy Bones

[Verse 3]
Good morning to you Billy Bones, Billy Bones
Good morning to you charming Billy You've done in many a tar in your day
And sent ‘em off to sleep in the bay
Well looks like turn about's... fair play!
At least for today, Billy Bones

[Chorus]
Bones, Bones, Bones, Billy Bones
Send him off to Davy Jones
Of rum and gold and wenches bold
You've had your last fill Billy Bones

[Verse 4]
Good morning to you Billy Bones, Billy Bones
Good morning to you charming Billy
Now old Flint is dead and that leaves only me
So I'll shovel your bony arse in the sea
I'll drink to your health, which you'll never see
Without eyes, without lips, Billy Bones

[Chorus]
Bones, Bones, Bones, Billy Bones
Send him off to Davy Jones
Of rum and gold and wenches bold
You've had your last fill Billy Bones
(Again!)
Bones, Bones, Bones, Billy Bones
Send him off to Davy Jones
Of rum and gold and wenches bold
You've had your last fill Billy Bones
