Heigh Ho, A Pirate Bold



Mark Twain is a pirate, so some people say,
A bold buccaneer of this Christianized day;
He rode the high seas and he robbed, we are told,
From the good ship Will Shakespeare a chapter of gold.
And unlike Captain Kidd, who sought far away nooks,
He buried his treasure in one of his books;
And now the press agent, and publisher too,
Will share in the treasure – O what a smart crew!
