The Bob Song Lyrics
"I once knew a pirate named Bob.
B-O-B Bob was a drunken old slob.
But Bob made it to the top."
I once knew a pirate named Bob
B-O-B Bob was a drunken old slob
B-O-B Bob, 'bout as dumb as a rock
But Bob, he made it to the top
He said "You swing from your tree
And I'll swing from mine.
You have your lemons and
I'll have my limes.
Funny, we all act like monkeys sometimes.
You swing from your tree,
And I'll swing from mine."
He said "I'd rather make love
Than war.
I'd rather make millions
Than to ever be poor.
I'd rather be happy
Than to have anymore.
Guess I'm A little tangled in a vine."
You swing from your tree
And I'll swing from mine
You have your lemons and
I'll have my lime
Funny, we all act like monkeys sometimes
You swing from your tree
And I'll swing from mine
I'll swing from mine
Now, You swing from your tree
And I'll swing from mine
We'll all be happy sometime
You swing from your tree
And I'll swing from mine
We'll all be happy sometime
You swing from your tree
And I'll swing from mine
You'll have your lemons and
I'll have my limes
Funny we all act like monkeys sometimes
You swing from your tree
And I'll swing from mine
B-O-B Bob was a drunken old slob.
But Bob made it to the top."
B-O-B Bob was a drunken old slob
B-O-B Bob, 'bout as dumb as a rock
But Bob, he made it to the top
And I'll swing from mine.
You have your lemons and
I'll have my limes.
Funny, we all act like monkeys sometimes.
You swing from your tree,
And I'll swing from mine."
Than war.
I'd rather make millions
Than to ever be poor.
I'd rather be happy
Than to have anymore.
Guess I'm A little tangled in a vine."
And I'll swing from mine
You have your lemons and
I'll have my lime
Funny, we all act like monkeys sometimes
And I'll swing from mine
And I'll swing from mine
We'll all be happy sometime
And I'll swing from mine
We'll all be happy sometime
And I'll swing from mine
You'll have your lemons and
I'll have my limes
And I'll swing from mine

I like this song. great melody, funny text. anyone know what this whole BOB thing is all about? I know the tracks a cover of sorts. from a play?
the phrase Guess I'm A little tangled in a vine is a direct reference to Bob Dylan and his song Tangled up in blue... it's evident through the song that he's talking about him
