Dead Man's Chest?

Fifteen men on a dead man's chest
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
Drink and the devil had done for the rest
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.
The mate was fixed by the bosun's pike
The bosun brained with a marlinspike
And cookey's throat was marked belike
It had been gripped by fingers ten;
And there they lay, all good dead men
Like break o'day in a boozing den

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.

5 more verses followed, then at the end was


But one man of her crew alive, What put to sea with seventy-five.
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.

Robert Louis Stevenson, Treasure Island
