We're going to do a song called Dirt Lady.
This is a ballad about a pirate and his ship.
[C] Being a pirate ballad, [F] the part for you of course in the song will [Bb] be ARRR!
[N] Every time during the song when I say something along the lines of
And every night the Baron would drink a toast
That will be your cue to raise your drinks on high
Or if you have no drinks, really your shake your fists on high
[C] And you're a good pirate, be ARRR!
This one I'm mining pirate bone
Being a pirate had never been known and [Fm] soon
On the [C] Dirt Lady
A ship strolling sound with a pirate as crew
And I am the man, that's [Fm] culling bones, blue glit and switch
On the [Cm] Dirt [C] Lady
And [Fm] every night [F] the Baron would [C] drink a toast
[Cm] ARRR!
That was that place I was talking [F] about
And he turned his to our lovely [C] lady house
[F] I went to [Bb] the head and [E] the crew [N] replied
[C] On the Dirt Lady's side
A rich Spanish galleon was spotted one night
The Dirt Lady's crew prepared for the [Fm] fight, clash of sides
No [C] Spaniard survived it
Except for one maiden with dark eyes so cold
Pound in the hall with jewels and gold
Bone like, ha ha ha, and took her for ransom
[Fm] And every night [F] the Baron would drink [C] a toast
ARRR!
[Fm] He turned his to [Eb] our [Fm] lovely lady [C] house
[Eb] I went to the [Bb] head and [C] the crew replied
On the Dirt Lady's side
A girl called Carlotta was a fainty quite rare
But each passing night the pumpkin [Fm] pirate's empty pad
He brought [C] her good
And soon pounded hell with more than desire
He slapped the hook through and his whole group finally claimed
That they would marry
A fight the [F] Baron drank with [D] till they lay
[C] ARRR!
[Fm] He spat [F] his tongue, my blushing [C] bride could be
I went [F] to the head and the crew [C] replied
And the Dirt Lady cried
Later [Cm] that night when the storm brewed at sea
The Dirt Lady [C] saw her chance to be [Fm] pre -arrival
To the beauty [C] Carlotta
She extended herself to the heart of the hill
Where a wave swept [Fm] the maiden out over the rail street
And the Dirt Lady replied
On an [G] empty floor
And every [F]
lady drank [C] a toast
ARRR!
[G] He turned his to [C] your lovely lady house
Your one true [Bb]
love, no [C] voices replied
[Cm] And the Dirt Lady [C] smiled
Now every [G] night when a storm fills the sky
A coach ship can be seen sailing in its ivy-tanned [Fm] swift
[C] Here's the Dark Lady
She's strong and sound with her perilous crew
High on the mast, fast as bones [Fm] through all the castanets
This is hard to [C] see
[F] Every night, so bad [Fm] lost, [G] drink a toast
ARRR!
He [F] says his to her lovely [Fm] lady [G] house
[F] My one true love, a pair of girls could replace
And the Dark [C] Lady smiled
[N]
[C] Now every night when a storm fills the sky
A coach ship can be seen sailing in its ivy [Fm]-tanned swift
Here's the [Cm] Dark [C] Lady
She's strong and [G] sound with her perilous crew
