Avast me Hearties!

It's Talk like a Pirate Day!

To celebrate, I editted a well known tune slightly....

Yo ho, yo ho, a Raveler’s life for me.
We knit, we spin, we crochet, and weave,
Stash up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
We tatt and quilt and don’t give a hoot,
Stash up me ‘earties, yo ho.
Yo ho, yo ho, a Raveler’s life for me.
We exort, we pout, we borrow, and buy,
Stash up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
Blackmail and beg, and even high-jack,
Stash up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
Yo ho, yo ho, a Raveler’s’s life for me.
We hide and stuff, take over closets and rooms,
Stash up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
We’ll take over your household, we’re really a fright,
Stash up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
We’re rascals, angels, villans, and innocents,
Stash up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
We’re Addicicted to yarn and all types of sheep,
Stash up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
Yo ho, yo ho, a Ravelers’s life for me.
We’ll stashers and destashers,
Stash up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
Till we see a yarn sale, then it’s all up for good,
Stash up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
We’ll promise to knit you a sweater that won’t itch
Stash up, me ‘earties, yo ho
Don’t put it in the Washer, or else the plank for you
Stash up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
Yo ho, yo ho, a Ravelers’s life for me.
We’ll beggars and brazen, ne’er-do-well cads,
Stash up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
Aye, but we’re loved by our mommies and dads,
added in undertone, very rushed
and assorted spouses, siblings, and offerspring
quick catch your breath to finish the tune
Stash up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
