Lyrics[]
Tigger: Aaaaaaah...I love the life on a piratey ship
Sailing the seventy seas!
But since we're surrounded by acres of woods
We sail on the land...
Gopher: Through the trees!
Everyone: Yo ho, everyone knows a pirate's life is free
Yo ho, where ever we go, pirates is what we'll be
Tigger: Swashle your buckles, the captain speaks
Piglet: It's time to...
Gopher: Swab the deck!
Tigger: Rudder the tiller, the rozzin is missing
Pooh: Will it be lunchtime next?
Everyone: Yo ho, everyone knows a pirate's life is free
Yo ho, where ever we go, pirates is what we'll be
Tigger: We sail for adventure, seek buried treasure
Gopher: Digging it up's for me
Everyone: Yo ho, everyone knows a pirate's life is free
Pooh: Ho yo? (laughs) How does it go?
Everyone: Pirates is what we'll be!
