Lyrics Fish in the Sea - Sean Dagher, Nils Brown, Michiel Schrey

Fish in the Sea

Come all you young sailor men, listen to me
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
Climbs up aloft and reefs the topsail
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
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
