The Scalliwag Dog

Oh, gather 'round and hear the tale,

Of a husky on the breeze,

A crewmate bold, with frosty nose,

The Scalliwag Dog, if you please.

Captain found him on the dock,

Eyes as sharp as a cutlass's eye,

With a wag of his icy tail,

He swore the dog was meant to fly.

Little did he know this pup,

Had tricks up his furry sleeve,

Across the deck he’d run amok,

And make the sailors believe.

Oh, the Scalliwag Dog, he’s a clever one,

Playing tricks under the sun,

Frosty paws and a mischievous grin,

The wildest dog the seas have spun.

He steals the captain’s shoe and hat,

Laughs and howls in the night,

Steers the boat with a playful yap,

Oh, this husky is a sight.

He hides the compass with a bark,

Sinks the hat of a foe,

Ingenious in his lark,

Watch him run and go!

Oh, the Scalliwag Dog, he’s a clever one,

Playing tricks under the sun,

Frosty paws and a mischievous grin,

The wildest dog the seas have spun.

From starboard to the port bow,

He’s the pirate’s sneakiest mate,

With a howl and a meow,

He’s the legend of his fate.

So if you ever sail the waves,

And see a husky with a grin,

Remember the tales they say,

The Scalliwag Dog will win!

Oh, the Scalliwag Dog, a salty little thief,

He’ll bring the storm or bring relief,

With a wag and a sneaky snog,

Forever free, the Scalliwag Dog.
