On the edge of life with the lady with the lady
Bet you don't mind a lissome guide
Ore' the ocean wide with the lady with the lady
Bet you don't mind a winsome la**
You put it all right with the people
You put it right nine to five
I found my ocean bride with my lady with my lady
Oh, what a sight
You're with us all the time, you're with us all the time
Oh, the calico even tide she's arrived
Oh, the calico out of time she don't mind
Oh, the calico you're the one never runs
Oh, the calico take me there 'til the end of the line
And we fools who count the years
Can't break her will to bear
Rides on, rides on the salt of her tears
She knows we're bound together
