Mike Aiken Blowin' Like A Bandit
Lawdy mercy land of Goshen
Shades of grey out on the ocean
Don’t you dare take that boat
Out to sea.
Lord the high seas a runnin’
You will sure nuff be done in
If you dare take that boat
Out to sea.
I was out there in the gulf
The wind is blowin’ like a bandit
And I’m talking ‘bout a hurricane
And your rigging will not stand it.
There’s an ill wind a blowin’
You’d better get back to your moorin’
Don’t you dare take that boat
Out to sea.
You’d better take a weather warnin’
You’ll be shark bait in the mornin’
If you dare take that boat
Out to sea.
You’d better give up on that shrimpin’
You just might come home a limpin’
If you dare take that boat
Out to sea.
You better not make one more drag
You gonna wind up in a bag
If you dare take that boat
Out to sea.
‘Cause out there in the gulf
The wind is blowin’ like a bandit
And I’m talking ‘bout a hurricane
And your rigging will not stand it.
Lawdy mercy land of Goshen
Shades of grey out on the ocean
Don’t you dare take that boat
Out to sea.
For the high seas are runnin’
You will sure enough be done in
If you dare take that boat
Out to sea.
