Guy Clark - Blowin' Like a Bandit lyrics

Lawdy mercy land of goshen shades of gray 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 Cause out there in the gulf the wind is blowin' like a bandit And I'm talkin' bout a hurricane and your riggin' will not stand it There's an ill wind a blowin' you better get back to your moorin' Don't you dare take that boat out to sea You better take a weather warnin' you'll be shark bait in the mornin' If you dare take that boat out to sea [ guitar - fiddle ] You 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're 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 talkin' bout a hurricane and your riggin' will not stand it Lawdy mercy land of goshen shades of gray 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
