[Verse]
G
Lawdy mercy land of goshen shades of gray out on the ocean
G                        D           G
Don't you dare take that boat out to sea
G
For the high seas are runnin' you will sure enough be done in
G                     D           G
If you dare take that boat out to sea
Bm                                      Em
Cause out there in the gulf the wind is blowin' like a bandit
Em      Bm                                Em               D
And I'm talkin' bout a hurricane and your riggin' will not stand it
D          G
There's an ill wind a blowin' you better get back to your moorin'
G                        D           G
Don't you dare take that boat out to sea
G
You better take a weather warnin' you'll be shark bait in the mornin'
G                     D           G
If you dare take that boat out to sea

G
You better give up on that shrimpin' you just might come home a limpin'
