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 sho' 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 stromin' on the sea
   It's rainin', it's stormin' on the sea
   I feel like somebody has shipwrecked poor me
