There's a pirate, known to fame 

Black Macocco was the Pirate's name 

In his day, the tops was he 

Round the Caribbean or Caribbean Sea



When he sites a clipper ship 

Mack would board her and begin to clip 

First he'd grab, the ladies fair 

Especially those with jewels, 

Those with jewels to spare! 



Especially those with jewels, 

Those with jewels to spare. 

Especially those with jewels, 

Especially those with jewels, 

Those with jewels to spare! 



With his ladies and his loot, 

Next Macocco from the ship would scoot 

Then he'd set the ship afire...what a pretty funeral 

Funeral pyre! 



Mack the Black, what a pretty funeral, 

Mack the Black, marvelous funeral pyre!   

Though the years this black Macocco 

Lead his pirate reign 

His claim to fame was as black as his name 

All around the Spanish Maine. 



When he'd a make his daily rounds 

Gals would trail him like a pack of hounds 

Ev'ry night he'd have a date Ladies go to pieces, 

Over Pieces of eight. 

Hey! 



Sleep my baby, baby sleep 

Time for babe to be in slumber deep 

If you wake or cry or laugh 

Mack the Black will whack ya 

And he'll whack ya in half! 



Mack the black will really whack 

Mack the black will whack ya! 

Mack the black would really have to 

Whack ya in half! 



Mack the Black will really whack ya, 

Mack the Black will whack ya! 

Mack the black will whack ya 

And he'll whack ya!  



Aaaaaah! Mack was ruthless, 

Mack was feared 

Perhaps it's better that he disappeared 

Yet I know, that he was bad 

I could fall in love with,

Fall in love with the lad! 



Evening star, if you see Mack 

Stop his wanderings and guide him back 

I'll be waiting, patiently 

By the Caribbean or Caribbean Sea. 



Is that the Caribbean Sea? 



And if I met this famous pirate 

Met him face to face 

You think I'd run and hide my head 

And scream around the place 

Why no I'd just sashay around 

Displaying all my charms 



And soon I'd have him walk the plank 

Right into my arms 



That's what I think of Mack the Black Macocco!
