Jack Hayter - Charlotte Badger lyrics

Yeah Yeah Yeah The good ship Venus By Christ you should have seen us. The figurehead was a nun in bed And you know how the rest of it goes. Well that's the way they tell it But stories don't have to be true And on Saturday night at the rugby club We'll chew the guts out of you. It was me and Hagerty. Kitty with eyes so blue. Me and Kitty Hagerty Nothing we tell you is true. 1806... We were kicking agaist the pricks So we stole The Venus from under their noses And swore we'd be convicts no more. They called Kitty a pirate. They branded me a who*e. But I did what I did for the sake of my kid It's easy to who*e when you're poor. It was me and Hagerty. Kitty with eyes so blue. Me and Kitty Hagerty Nothing they'll tell you is true. We made the Bay Of Islands We built a home by the sea. Then Kitty got ill and she died in my arms And the wind was as bitter as me. They'll tell you I died of the pox They'll tell you I perished at sea. Did we pay the natives To tell you they ate us While we scuttled off to Chile.
