lyrics
We sets our sails for a pirate treasure
Yo ho ho is the song we sings
Oh, my bones! If we ever find her
Rich we'll be, like Persian kings
Digging down deep! (8x)
Digging down deep for a pirate treasure
Bakes our backs in the noonday sun
Cares not we if we never find her
Search itself is half the fun, yo
The search is half the fun!
Digging down deep! (7x)
We sets our sails for a pirate treasure
Yo ho ho is the song we sings
Oh, my bones! If we ever find her
Rich we'll be, like Persian kings
Digging down deep for a pirate treasure
Bakes our backs in the noonday sun
Cares not we if we never find her
Search itself is half the fun, yo
The search is half the fun!
Could it be buried in a foreign land?
Aye, Matey, dig it down deep!
Could it be hiding in the island sand?
Aye, Matey, dig it down deep!
Could it be sitting under this here tree?
Aye, Matey, dig it down deep!
Could it be waiting there just for me?
Aye, Matey, dig it down deep!
Digging down deep! (8x)
Digging down deep! (7x)
Yo ho ho is the song we sings
Oh, my bones! If we ever find her
Rich we'll be, like Persian kings
Digging down deep! (8x)
Digging down deep for a pirate treasure
Bakes our backs in the noonday sun
Cares not we if we never find her
Search itself is half the fun, yo
The search is half the fun!
Digging down deep! (7x)
We sets our sails for a pirate treasure
Yo ho ho is the song we sings
Oh, my bones! If we ever find her
Rich we'll be, like Persian kings
Digging down deep for a pirate treasure
Bakes our backs in the noonday sun
Cares not we if we never find her
Search itself is half the fun, yo
The search is half the fun!
Could it be buried in a foreign land?
Aye, Matey, dig it down deep!
Could it be hiding in the island sand?
Aye, Matey, dig it down deep!
Could it be sitting under this here tree?
Aye, Matey, dig it down deep!
Could it be waiting there just for me?
Aye, Matey, dig it down deep!
Digging down deep! (8x)
Digging down deep! (7x)

HORRIBLE SONGS FOR CHILDREN
