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