[Pete Seeger - Windy Old Weather lyrics]
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the herring the king of the sea
He sang out old skipper
Now you can't catch me
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the mackerel with his stripéd back
He sang out old skipper
Come haul your mean tack
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the sprat the smallest of all
He sang out old skipper
Come haul your trawl haul
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the crab with his great long claws
He sang out old skipper
You'll run us ashore
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the herring right under the lee
He sang drifting's finished
Why bother? Catch me
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the herring all broken and spent
He cried drifting's finished
Who'll pay the rent?
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the mackerel with his stripéd back
He sang out old skipper
Come haul your mean tack
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the sprat the smallest of all
He sang out old skipper
Come haul your trawl haul
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the herring the king of the shoal
He cried drifting's finished
Gotta stay on the dole
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the herring the king of the sea
He sang out old skipper
Now you can't catch me
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the mackerel with his stripéd back
He sang out old skipper
Come haul your mean tack
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the sprat the smallest of all
He sang out old skipper
Come haul your trawl haul
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the crab with his great long claws
He sang out old skipper
You'll run us ashore
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the herring right under the lee
He sang drifting's finished
Why bother? Catch me
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the herring all broken and spent
He cried drifting's finished
Who'll pay the rent?
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the mackerel with his stripéd back
He sang out old skipper
Come haul your mean tack
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the sprat the smallest of all
He sang out old skipper
Come haul your trawl haul
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
Up jumped the herring the king of the shoal
He cried drifting's finished
Gotta stay on the dole
In this windy old weather
Stormy old weather, boys when the wind blows
We'll all go together
