This I tried to write a sea chantey but got sidetracked. Argh! It could very well make my list of one of the 5 worst songs I've ever written. Considering I have currently written 711 that is quite an accomplishment. Perhaps some child under age 7 could find it amusing if it was performed by a skilled children's performer. If curious, check out my children's song YouTube playlist for some better ones I have written in this genre. I guess a beard is a body part-- so I will check that box.
Song #711-They Pulled My Beard (c)2022 by Rob Lincoln (Open)
When I went off to sea they pulled my beard (3x)
So I went to the captain
When they pulled my beard I said ouch ouch ouch (3x)
So I cried to the captain
When they pulled my beard they said ha ha ha (3x)
So I went to the captain
When they pulled my beard they got clumps in their hands (3x)
So I went to the captain
The captain said they should say sorry (3x)
So they all told me sorry
Now we all growl argh argh argh (3x)
And no one pulls my beard

Very sweet :)) I love the banjo and sea shanties plus have a toddler so this is well on my level! I like the repeated bits, very catchy. Great playing and performance
