| Lyman and Frederick and Jim one day | B |
| Set out in a great big ship | C |
| Steamed to the ocean adown the bay | B |
| Out of a New York slip | C |
| Where are you going and what is your game | D |
| The people asked those three | E |
| Darned if we know but all the same | D |
| Happy as larks are we | E |
| And happier still we're going to be | E |
| Said Lyman | F |
| And Frederick | G |
| And Jim | H |
| - | |
| The people laughed Aha oho | I |
| Oho aha laughed they | B |
| And while those three went sailing so | J |
| Some pirates steered that way | B |
| The pirates they were laughing too | K |
| The prospect made them glad | L |
| But by the time the job was through | K |
| Each of them pirates bold and bad | L |
| Had been done out of all he had | L |
| By Lyman | F |
| And Frederick | G |
| And Jim | H |
| - | |
| Days and weeks and months they sped | M |
| Painting that foreign clime | H |
| A beautiful bright vermilion red | M |
| And having a of a time | H |
| 'T was all so gaudy a lark it seemed | N |
| As if it could not be | E |
| And some folks thought it a dream they dreamed | N |
| Of sailing that foreign sea | E |
| But I 'll identify you these three | E |
| Lyman | F |
| And Frederick | G |
| And Jim | H |
| - | |
| Lyman and Frederick are bankers and sich | O |
| And Jim is an editor kind | P |
| The first two named are awfully rich | O |
| And Jim ain't far behind | P |
| So keep your eyes open and mind your tricks | Q |
| Or you are like to be | E |
| In quite as much of a Tartar fix | Q |
| As the pirates that sailed the sea | E |
| And monkeyed with the pardners three | E |
| Lyman | F |
| And Frederick | G |
| And Jim | H |
