| Blues all on the ocean |
| Blues all in the air |
| Can’t stay here no longer |
| I have no steamship fare |
| When my earthly trials are over |
| Carry my body out in the sea |
| Save all the undertaker bills |
| Let the mermaids flirt with me |
| I do not work for pleasure |
| Earthly peace I’ll see no more |
| The only reason I work at all |
| Is to drive the world from my door |
| My wife controls our happy home |
| A sweetheart I can not find |
| The only thing I can call my own |
| Is a troubled and a worried mind |
| Blues all in my body |
| My darling has forsaken me |
| If I ever see her face again |
| I have to swim across the sea |
| Blues all on the ocean |
| Blues all in the air |
| Can’t stay here no longer |
| I have no steamship fare |
