The Longest Johns
Fish in the Sea
[Verse 1]
Come all you young sailor men, listen to me
I'll sing you a song of the fish in the sea
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
Up jumps the eel, with his slippery tail
Climbs up atop and he reefs the topsail
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
Then up jumps the shark, with his nine rows of teeth
Saying, "You eat the dough, boys, and I'll eat the beef"
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 4]
Then up jumps the whale, the largest of all
"If you want any wind, well, I'll blow ye a squall"
[Chorus]
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
