In the style of "Little Red Corvette" by THE ARTIST CURRENTLY KNOWN AS "THE ARTIST
FORMERLY KNOWN AS PRINCE"
I guess I shoulda known
By the way you cocked your hip sideways
That I wouldn't last
See you're the kind of person
Who believes in sailin out once
find it and take it fast
I guess I must be dumb
cuz you had a cutlass and a corset
Somehow I'd change your views
But yes that was a fortnight
and I had put up a fight
And I was left on an island marooned
And all I saw was the
Little Dread Pirate
Tied me up to the mast
Little Dread Pirate
My little ship was sinkin fast
I guess I shoulda closed my eyes
when we sailed out to the place
of the buried booty
Cuz I felt a little ill
when I saw all the bodies
of the lubbers that had died before me
Believe it or not
I thought of no worry
Wondered if I'd had enough rum
But yes that was a fortnight
I thought my future was bright
And you said Baby, how could you be so dum
Oh yeah
Little Dread Pirate
Tied me up to the mast
Little Dread Pirate
You need to find a man that's gonna last
A body like yours (A body like yours)
Oughta be in hell (oughta be in hell)
cuz it's about as sinful as it can be
Move over baby,(Move over baby)
Give me the wheel,(Give me the wheel)
I'm gonna try to tame that little dread love machine
Little Dread Pirate
Tied me up to the mast
Little Dread Pirate
You need to find a man that's gonna last
Little Dread Pirate
Honey you should got to down (got to settle down)
Little Dread Pirate
Cuz if you don't you're gonna run this
pirate right to the ground
(Little Dread Pirate)
Right down To the ground (got to settle down)
You, you you got to settle down (Little Dread Pirate)
You're movin much to fast (2 Fast)
You Need to find a man who's gonna last
Girl you got some brass like I've never seen
And the Ride
I say the ride is so sweet
you stole it from a navy fleet
Tied me up to the mast
Little dread pirate
you need a man, you need a man thats
gonna last
(little dread pirate)
You got to settle down (got to settle down now)
Little Dread pirate
cuz if you don't cuz if you don't
you're gonna run this pirate right into the ground (right into the ground)
Right into the ground (right into the ground)
Right into the ground (right into the ground)
