Capt. Flint Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 We sail by night and trade by stars light just beyond the three mile tide we have boxes and crates filled with what men crave ..Whiskey, Rum and Rye... The law does chase us and watches our moves but we can slip them if we try and fill our pockets with gold and loot ..Whiskey, Rum and Rye... For every speakeasy and bordello you see each of them started by a few old salts who know the sea and ..Whiskey, Rum and Rye... As we sail home our boat is much lighter but our pockets are full and we sigh for each of us here remembered to keep a little ..Whiskey, Rum and Rye...

Cire Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 I thought it was Scotch Whisky that you guys illegally got, not Irish Whiskey... Because the world does revolve around me, and the universe is geocentric.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
