[00:00] Next time out to sea
[00:02.07] Bring enough soil to bury me
[00:03.71] For I don't want my final jig
[00:05.45] In the belly of a squid
[00:07.52]
[00:11.87] Next time out to sea
[00:13.07] Bring enough soil to bury me
[00:14.59] For I don't want my final jig
[00:16.01] In the belly of a squid
[00:17.31] Take my trousers take my shirt
[00:18.73] Just give me that sweet dirt
[00:20.14] For the water's cold and grim
[00:21.78] And I never did learn to swim
[00:23.09] No her love never set me free
[00:24.28] So I set off for the ocean
[00:25.81] Now in my dreams she comes to me
[00:27.01] Whispering of peace
[00:28.75] But I've known since the day
[00:30.05] That we sailed for Santiago
[00:31.58] Her dry embrace would kiss my face
[00:32.99] No never, no more
[00:34.30]
[00:34.62] The Sea is a Cruel Mistress
[00:40.04] The Sea is a Cruel Mistress
[00:47.25]
[00:54.44] Many moons to the day
[00:55.42] That I threw her love away
[00:57.38] Now every whale spouts,"go to hell"
[00:58.69] As the wind laughs in my face
[01:00.21] I've grown harder on the eyes
[01:01.52] And salty on the taste
[01:02.93] My pride has gone with the wake
[01:04.46] As I wait a cold wet grave
[01:05.98] I rose to the smell
[01:07.07] Of a wet desert hell
[01:08.70] And I thought to myself
[01:09.90] How'd I wind up in this jail
[01:11.53] Till a voice called to me
[01:12.84] From deep within the sea
[01:14.25] Dry your eyes my dear fisherman
[01:15.78] Your ass belongs to me
[01:17.09]
[01:17.52] The Sea is a Cruel Mistress
[01:23.07] The Sea is a Cruel Mistress
[01:30.37]
[01:44.49] The earth will rest my bones
[01:48.01] Lord I know, Lord I know
[01:55.74] But I'll see you when I get home
[01:59.55] From the cold, yeah from the cold
[02:05.75]
[02:12.33] No her love never set me free
[02:14.10] So I set off for the ocean
[02:15.88] Now in my dreams she comes to me
[02:17.51] Whispering of peace
[02:18.93] But I've known since the day
[02:20.45] That we sailed for Santiago
[02:22.08] Her dry embrace would kiss my face
[02:23.61] No never, no more
[02:25.02]
[02:27.42] The Sea is a Cruel Mistress
[02:33.05] The Sea is a Cruel Mistress
[02:38.74]
[02:39.18] Next time out to sea
[02:40.37] Bring enough soil to bury me
[02:41.69] For I don't want my final jig
[02:43.33] In the belly of a squid
[02:44.63]
[02:45.07] Next time out to sea
[02:46.27] Bring enough soil to bury me
[02:47.57] For in my dreams she comes to me
[02:48.99] Whispering of peace...
[02:50.40]
[02:51.06] Next time out to sea
[02:52.26] Bring enough soil to bury me
[02:53.34] For I don't want my final jig
[02:54.98] In the belly of a squid
