lyrics

In the grumbling months when the weak ones die (Hi Yo, an eye on the weather)
They die unshriven and they don’t go to heaven
Keep an eye on the wind and an eye on the weather
And the devil take them what’s left behind

The moon is full, her belly swells (Hi Yo, an eye on the weather)
But here below we’re as hungry as hell
Keep an eye on the wind and an eye on the weather
And the devil take them what’s left behind

The shark he wheels and he waits to feed (Hi Yo, an eye on the weather)
But he won’t find a mouthful of meat on me
Keep an eye on the wind and an eye on the weather
And the devil take them what’s left behind

And if we make land as living men (Hi Yo, an eye on the weather)
I swear that I’ll never set sail again
Keep an eye on the wind and an eye on the weather
And the devil take them what’s left behind
