The Longest Johns - Fish In The Sea Lyrics

The Longest Johns Lyrics

"Fish In The Sea"

Come all you young sailor-men, listen to me
I'll sing you a song of the fish in the sea

And it's windy weather, boys
Stormy weather, boys
When the wind blows we're all together, boys
Blow ye winds westerly, blow ye winds blow
Jolly sou'wester, boys, steady she goes!

Up jumps the eel with his slippery tail
Climbs up aloft and reefs the topsail!

And it's windy weather, boys
Stormy weather, boys
When the wind blows we're all together, boys
Blow ye winds westerly, blow ye winds blow
Jolly sou'wester, boys, steady she goes!

Then up jumps the shark with his nine rows of teeth
Saying "you eat the dough, boys, and I'll eat the beef!"

And it's windy weather, boys
Stormy weather, boys
When the wind blows we're all together, boys
Blow ye winds westerly, blow ye winds blow
Jolly sou'wester, boys, steady she goes!

Up jumps the whale the largest of all
"If you want any wind, well I'll blow you a squall!"

And it's windy weather, boys
Stormy weather, boys
When the wind blows we're all together, boys
Blow ye winds westerly, blow ye winds blow
Jolly sou'wester, boys, steady she goes!

And it's windy weather, boys
Stormy weather, boys
When the wind blows we're all together, boys
Blow ye winds westerly, blow ye winds blow
Jolly sou'wester, boys, steady she goes!

Steady she goes!
