Some more images have been posted of this saga: click here for image!

I'm now working on the illustration for the Isle of Feline Delight.

The lyrics have been slightly revised and now look like this:

Three Kitties Set Out to Sea


Am----G--C--G--Am
Three kit-ties set out to sea
-----G------------------Am-G
Set out to sea, set out to sea;
Am----G--C--G--Am
Three kit-ties set out to sea
----G----------------------Am
To see what they could see.


And one was known as Calico Jack,
Calico Jack, an old shellback;
An old shellback who was never slack,
As he sailed the Seven Seas.

And then there was Coal Black Rose,
Coal Black Rose from nose to toes;
From nose to toes she was disposed
To sail the Seven Seas.

And up aloft was Captain Kitt,
Captain Kitt, spyglass in mitt;
The crows in the crows nest had a fit,
As they sailed the Seven Seas.

And many a sea rat met his fate,
Met his fate as he was ate;
As he was ate without a plate,
Upon the Bold Catspaw.

They nabbed many a flying fish,
Flying fish, a dainty dish;
As dainty a dish, as they might wish,
As they sailed the Seven Seas.

Then one fine day a sail they spied,
A sail they spied an' they drew nigh;
As they drew nigh "Ahoy!" they cried,
"Who sails the Seven Seas?"

That caravel was crewed by scurvy dogs,
Who snarled and snapped all agog;
So they fired a broadside an' called for grog,
And sank them in the sea.

They sailed onto an isle remote,
An isle remote, in their old catboat;
In their old catboat, sailed those cutthroats,
To that sandy shore.

And there they found at first daylight,
At first daylight – feline delight;
Feline delight, bright birds at flight,
Upon that jungle isle.

They dined on birds and eggs galore,
Eggs galore on that fair shore;
From that fair shore they sailed once more,
Back across the Seas.

Three kitties set out to sea
Set out to sea, set out to sea;
Three kitties set out to sea,
To see what they could see.

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
