Shipwreck Blues

Lyrics

Captain, tell your men to get on board
 I sure see 'em just pull into another shore
 ♪
 I'm dreary in mind and I'm so worried in heart
 
 Oh, the best of friends sure has got to part
 ♪
 Blow your whistle captain
 So your men'll know what to do
 Blow your whistle captain
 So your men'll know what to do
 When a woman gets dreary
 Ain't no tellin' what she won't do
 ♪
 It's cloudy outdoors as can be
 Oh, it's cloudy as can be
 That's the time I need my good man with me
 ♪
 It's rainin' and it's stormin' on the sea
 
 It's rainin', it's stormin' on the sea
 I feel like somebody has shipwrecked poor me
