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
