Bring enough soul to bury me
In a belly of a squid
Your ass belongs to me
Many moons to the day
In the belly of a squid
For I don't want my final jig
How'd I wind up in this jail
No never, no more
Bring enough soil to bury me
That we sailed for Santiago
No her love never set me free
The earth will rest my bones
The sea is a cruel mistress
But I've known since the day
Bring enough soil to bury me
And salty to the taste
Of a wet desert hell
From deep within the sea
As I wait a cold wet grave
Now in my dreams she comes to me
For in my dreams she comes to me
Next time out to sea
The sea is a cruel mistress
Lord I know, Lord I know
Just give me that sweet dirt
In a belly of a squid
Bring enough soil to bury me
The sea is a cruel mistress
Next time out to sea
Now every whale spouts, "Go to hell"
And I thought to myself
So I set off for the ocean
No never, no more
That I threw her love away
Dry your eyes my dear fisherman
Her dry embrace would kiss my face
I've grown harder on the eyes
But I've known since the day
Her dry embrace would kiss my face
Whispering of peace
The sea is a cruel mistress
That we sailed for Santiago
Whispering of peace
Till a voice called to me
Now in my dreams she comes to me
I rose to the smell
As the wind laughs in my face
So I set out for the ocean
From the cold, yeah from the cold
For the water's cold and grim
Next time out to sea
For I don't want my final jig
Whispering of peace
And I never did learn to swim
My pride has gone with the wake
But I'll see you when I get home
Take my trousers take my shirt
Next time out to sea
For I don't want my final jig
For I don't want my final jig
The sea is a cruel mistress
No her love never set me free
The sea is a cruel mistress
