   I need the words to a Parady Pirate Song I heard years ago called (at least by the singer) The Man Song. From my recollection: Oh, it's great to sail on a ship with men and sail across the sea o'. With "name, name, name" and "name" and one guy we call Mary. Any help out there?

   Dance With the Wind

   Dance with the Wind I like to dance with the wind. It fills my sails and opens my heart. My skirt flutters, veils soar and take me on their magic journey. We tremble like windripples in the chill of twilight not lingering too long in the break between worlds between twilight and dark. The sand snaps tiny biting specks against my ankles like bracelets, they patter me as if I am spinning and then realize: I am spinning. I know where your gate is latched I know where your sloop is anchored I see the string on your kite, lo…

My perfume fills your very being. You would seek fame and adventure through me! Sail upon me, sir, and I shall dance to the wind Raising my gray skirts and lifting my white petticoats about you. I shall let down my long green hair and destroy you. Pulling you down to my cold heart Your flesh shall feed my kingdom! Your widow will curse me, while your children shall seek me. Escape me? Never!

    I've been listening to this song on a new (to me) cd (Pirate Gold by the Jolly Rogers), and I've been wondering - is this song based on true incident? 10 to 1 odds, and the Oak wins? I know the Royal Oak is the name of a British warship... Does anyone know?

    A number of years ago (maybe 6) I bought a pirate cd at the Hampton Blackbeard Festival (this was when it was held in Tidewater Park.) The CD was sort of a metal rock band singing (actually, more like yelling) lyrics about pirates. It was just AWFUL. It had almost as much charm as the beastie boys pirate song. Anyways I lost the CD in a poker match shortly after, and have no more memory of who that CD was by. Anyone know who I'm talking about? The only other scant details I can provide are that the cover was black with a red printing of a jolly roger with an eyepatch, and that one of the songs had a line that went something like: "you know I'm not a liar so you'd bette…

    Garfield the Cat - Halloween special Sea Shantie

    I first mentioned this on Pirate Pop, in response to movie lists, but setting down to do a "think", I guess it might get a better response here. Many Many (more than I want to count) moons ago, when presented for the first time, the Garfield the cat Halloween special, had a pirate segment in it. (unless I be dreaming it) And the major part of this one segment was of Garfield and the dog (odi?) out on a boat on the rough sea. It was accompanied by a Sea Shantie, with a recurring line, "Yo Ho, Yo Ho, over the bounding sea we go, Yo Ho, Yo Ho, where ever the four winds blow" or something to that extent. The Shantie told a story, but I can't remember the words, and in …
