Bloody Jack is Just a Girl
-----
I'm mostly peaceful
Calm as the ocean during a storm
I'm not too graceful
I've had sea legs since I was born
-----
I'm not too smart
A novice in embroidery
I'm fair decent in art
Give me a sail, I'll take to the sea
-----
I like open air
A place where I can run and dance and sing
Sun bleaches my hair
While I run from sheriffs and tactless kings
-----
I make friends easy
But enemies come just as fast
Some boys seem to like me
Though I like swingin' from the mast
-----
I'm not always liked
And I've been locked in the brig
Hit me and I'll cry
Because I'm only human
-----
I'm Bloody Jack
Famous in both legend and song
I've seen the Cathay Cat and Bombay rat
But I'm just a girl, getting along.
