Lyrics: Thomas "Clio" Rickman
Terrific name! who'll dare come near thee?
Friends as well as foes must fear thee.
GORGON thy enemies will cry,
And from thy winged bullets fly;
While friends thy name will backward read,
And from thy thirsty bark recede.
For thus exclaims each waggish dog,
"I'll board no ship where there's NO GROG".
Terrific name! who'll dare come near thee?
Friends as well as foes must fear thee.
GORGON thy enemies will cry,
And from thy winged bullets fly;
While friends thy name will backward read,
And from thy thirsty bark recede.
For thus exclaims each waggish dog,
"I'll board no ship where there's NO GROG".
