The Pirates of St. Augustine (Acoustic) Lyrics

Well, the pirates all come to St. Augustine

They don't always say what they really mean

They usually got something up their sleeves

Don't buy their gold

No, No

'Cause it's only make believe

Yea, it's only make believe

Well, my heart was full of psychic pain

So I went to see a psychic named Mary Jane

She explained it all to me

She read my tea leaves

Now I'm

Psychic pain

Oh, I'm psychic pain free

Yea, I'm psychic pain free

Well, Mary Jane invited me

To go pick some daisies

At the old huguenot cemetery

She started winking at me

She started smiling at me

It was a classic case

Of the birds

Oh the birds-and-the-bees

Yea, the birds-and-the-bees

Well, I quit my job at the alligator farm

Cause the alligators kept trying to chew off my arms

Then Mary Jane confessed to me

That she was actually

A Federal prisoner escapee

Yea, an escapee

Well, Mary Jane said we had to get away

So we headed south down A-1-A found a cheap motel to stay

And there she changed her name

From Mary Jane

To Mary Rain

Yea, Mary Rain

Well, this next part you might not believe

But Mary decided to run for a congressional seat

Which she won handedly

And now we

Live in

Washington, D. C.

Yea, Washington, D.C.

Well, Mary works on foreign policy

Votes on judicial nominees

Helps to tweak the economy

We're as happy as can be

And her secrets

Oh, her secrets

Well, they're safe with me

Yea, they're safe with me

Yea, the pirates all come to St. Augustine

They don't always say what they really mean

They usually got something up their sleeves

Don't buy their gold

No, no

But do buy their tea leaves

Yea, buy their tea leaves

Yea, buy their tea leaves
