Lyrics

I once knew a pirate named Bob B-O-B, Bob was a drunken old slob But Bob made it to the top I once knew a pirate named Bob B-O-B, Bob was a drunken old slob B-O-B, Bob, 'bout as dumb as a rock But Bob, he made it to the top He said, "You swing from your tree And I'll swing from mine You have your lemons And I'll have my limes" "Funny, we all act like monkeys sometimes You swing from your tree And I'll swing from mine" He said, "I'd rather make love Than have a war I rather make millions Than to ever be poor" "I'd rather be happy Than to have anymore Guess, I'm a little tangled in a vine? You swing from your tree And I'll swing from mine You have your lemons And I'll have my limes Funny, we all act like monkeys sometimes You swing from your tree And I'll swing from mine I'll swing from mine Now, you swing from your tree And I'll swing from my tree And we'll all be happy sometimes You swing from your tree And I'll swing from my tree We'll all be happy sometimes You swing from your tree And I'll swing from mine You have your lemons And I'll have my limes Funny, we all act like monkeys sometimes You swing from your tree And I'll swing from mine You have your whiskey And I'll drink my wine You save your dollar And I'll spend my dime You swing from your tree And I'll swing from mine We'll all be happy sometimes And we'll all be happy sometimes Ah, Bob
