Based on the appalling folk legend of Auld John Brown. The Cornish fruitcake...
Lyrics
The pirate Auld John Brown is locked in Padstow jail
For the killing of his mam and the murder of his wife
An he strangled all his bairns and then he drowned the dog
And he wandered through the Town hacking people down
And he had but two words to say as they carried him away
Ya buggers...
They took him to the jail and they set him in irons and chains
And they tortured him with Aheng's until he confessed his sins
And then he passed away and he had but two words to say
Ya buggers...
The pirate Auld John Brown died there in Padstow Jail
But his ghost it still remains clanking his irons and chains
And his last words still heard some say echoing the passageways
Ya buggers...
