The title already hints that there could be difficulty rhyming. Other than ordinary,
however, the words are pretty simple, and there are few of them.
It is hard for a Pirates of the Caribbean fan not to like this song, which mentions buried treasure to music that could have been played at that time in history - even if you, like me, would not normally have anything to do with a song whose instrumentation consists of an acoustic guitar. But really, what complaint should I have? An acoustic guitar solo has a setting-suitable quality I end up having to like. (This was not the first time I realized that, either.)
Yes, I know, these things should not be more about the parodist than the song. But I just went to prove that point there.
