The Jolly Rogers - The Fish of the Sea lyrics
[The Jolly Rogers - The Fish of the Sea lyrics]
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
He climbs up aloft as he reefs the topsail!
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 cod with his chuckle head
He runs out up forward and
Throws out the lead!
The up jumps the herring, the king of the sea
Saying, "All other fishes
Now you follow me!" 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 ye a squall"
Then up jumps the fisherman
Stalwart and grim and with his big net
He scoops them all in! 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!
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!
