Oh, I've got a story, hear me out (Tell us all a story) I've got a tale you'll surely doubt (Tell us all a story) Oh, I met a girl in a far off land, the finest girl around Her hair was black, ran down her back, and trailed across the ground Her voice would melt the coldest heart One kiss would turn ya pale All that been said, she had no legs, just a long and scaly tail Oh, I've got a story, hear me out (Tell us all a story) Ohh, I've got a tale you'll surely doubt (Tell us all a story) I buried all my treasure on an island out at sea I lost the map, but got it back in 1843 I dug it up and sailed it home playing poker with a friend I tried to bluff, he showed a flush And now it's lost again Oh, I've got a story, hear me out (Tell us all a story) I've got a tale you'll surely doubt (Tell us all a story) When sailing 'cross the ocean blue, a monster I did spy Was twice as big as my old rig with one big bloomy eye My knees began to tremble as we steered on through the fog But as it cleared, all I had feared Was a seaweed covered log Oh, I've got a story, hear me out (Tell us all a story) I've got a tale you'll surely doubt (Tell us all a story) Now,, surely you have heard about the siren's deadly tune Their song is sweet, compels your feet To lead you to your doom To gaze upon their beauty is a pleasure I must know If gorgeous wenches be my death, then that's all, I must go Oh, I've got a story, hear me out (Tell us all a story) I've got a tale you'll surely doubt (Tell us all a story) I've got a story, hear me out (Tell us all a story) I've got a tale you'll surely doubt (Tell us all a story) Hey!
