Captain Tew

Oh, this is the song of Captain Tew
Whose greed had unknown cause, it's true;
He attacked the Mogul's ships you see
And got stabbed in the belly by an Indian's Asi.

He was a rich man, and went out to sea
And took his men to get treasure for free.
He captured one ship of the Mogul's fleet
And a rich man could die, but because of his greed

He went out again, and breached from shore
And found the Mogul's ships once more.
His men locked together in a fearsome fight
And Tew fell down by the belly bulge knifed.

There is one moral to this song
That a greedy man is never content for long;
All that his eyes do see
He tries to gather for his nose of greed.

He tries to gain, he tries to fight
With his thefts he does not know what's right.
And one day he's caught once more
And falls by Justice's swift, red sword.
