- Lyric hook: So cast your chicken bones, toss those colored lava stones, do what you must to see what lies ahead, we are sailing with the dawn, when the oil in the lamps is burned and gone and a sailor is a superstitious man
- Lyrics: It was raining hard last night When I hung the riding light, And I stared into the dark horizon You can't help but wonder how the weather will be, When you're planning to go to sea, But tomorrow wasn't telling me a thing. CHORUS If there's dew on the deck at dawn We'll known the morning wind will be strong So we'll watch the sky and the horizon. Watching for a thin white line; If you see it in time, You can drop the sails and let it blow on by. REPEAT CHORUS So we'll spill a glass of rum To Neptune, Zeus's seafaring son, And a few more drops we'll offer to the sea. For a sailor's a cautious soul, And trusts his boat, but still, in all, A sailor is a superstitious man.
