All Through the Rain and Squally Weather

Oh, squall in the morning, squall in the evening
     Hay, ay, ay.
Oh squall in the morning, squall in the evening,
     Blow my bully boy, blow my blow.

Blow Bull Johnson, blow your fibre,
     Hay, ay, ay
Oh, blow your fibre from Antigua
     Blow my bully boy, blow my blow.

Yes, she came in rimmin' the water
Oh, sandfly leg and mosquito liver

Oh the big Florita run down the river
Oh she went down the river to hunt Guinea nigger

Oh he want Guinea nigger to feed black nigger
Oh blow your fiber from Antigua

Oh, squall in the morning, squall in the evening
     Hay, ay, ay.
Oh squall in the morning, squall in the evening,
     Blow my bully boy, blow my blow.

From Deep the Water, Shallow the Shore, Abrahams
