Great find Tim!
You are right Genene this is the best song ever written about Errol and the three videos are great all with the same song “Errol”.
I love the video of Captain Blood!

Here is the lyric:

Convict state
It just don’t rate
He want to get higher
Apple Isle, the inbred smile
He’s going to get by’a
His mother’s hand
He could not stand
He left for the islands
To fish and hunt
He take a punt
The New Guinea Highlands

Ohhh Errol
I would give everything just to be like him

He had to go
The Sirocco
He’s sailin the high seas
Hollywood, Captain Blood
He’s billing the Nazi’s
Took a rebel stand
Contraband
Coast of Mexico
He want to pounce
Like an animal
To girls he just can’t say no

Ohhh Errol
I would give everything just to be like him

He had them all
Screamin for more
He play the wild scene
Ah scandalise, no compromise
He’s down on his knees
Swashbuckling
He was the King
The toast of Tinseltown
They build him up
They took it all
And then they just cut him down

Ohhh Errol
I would give everything just to be like him

Dont tell me its true
I dont wanna hear about it

Ohhh Errol
I would give everything just to be like him
