A Pirate ship came sailing by
Sailing by, sailing by
A Pirate ship came sailing by
On Bookstart Day in the morning.
The ship it rocked from side to side
From side to side, from side to side
The ship it rocked from side to side
On Bookstart Day in the morning.
The Pirates waved and said “ahoy!”
said “ahoy!”, said “ahoy!”
The Pirates waved and said “ahoy!”
On Bookstart Day in the morning.
and if it is a Treasure Chest party…
The Pirates gave us Treasure Chests
Treasure Chests, Treasure Chests
The Pirates gave us Treasure Chests
On Bookstart Day in the morning
(to the tune of I Saw Three Ships)

The one-eyed pirate (Cover one eye)
He’s fierce and he’s tough (Clench fists)
He digs for buried treasure (digging motion)
He never finds enough.
He lives on a ship
Way out on the sea (wave motion)
His parrot is his only friend (perch hand on shoulder)
Except for me! (Point to self)

Five boney skeletons standing in a row
Five boney skeletons bow down low
Their arm bones rattle and their leg bones shake
Be careful Mr. Skeleton or you might break!
OOH! AAH! OOH! AAH! OOH! AHH!
Four boney skeletons standing in a row (repeat as above)
Three boney skeletons (repeat as above)
Two boney skeletons (repeat as above)
One boney skeleton (repeat as above)

I’m a pirate! That I be!
I sail me ship upon the sea
I stay up late – till half past three
And that’s a peg below my knee!
~
Sing a song of sixpence, a pocketful of rye
Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie
When the pie was opened,
The birds began to sing
Wasn’t that a dainty dish to set before the king!
(It has been suggested by some that this traditional nursery rhyme represents a coded message used to recruit crews for pirate ships) Btw: Don't sing this when a pirate is around or they'll get the wrong idea.

Bobby Shafto's gone to sea,
Silver buckles on his knee;
He'll come back and marry me,
Bonny Bobby Shafto!
Bobby Shafto's bright and fair,
Combing down his yellow hair;
He's my love for evermore,
Bonny Bobby Shafto!

Two little pirates sailing on their ship
One called Pete, the other called Pip.
Sail away Pete, sail away Pip.
Come back Pete, come back Pip!
