about

A sea shanty meets a Lee Hazelwood vocal in a spaghetti western B movie.

lyrics

On the distant coast of Malabar
There’s a little house in Porbandar
Where the glasses clink
And the people drink
Many bottles from the altar

When a storm from sea
Batten down the life you lead
When the hail stones sting your eyes
Through the eye of the storm
Keep your promises sworn
As the cold wind whistles by

(Chorus)
And it’s one more time for
The waves that climb
And smash upon the wall
And it’s one last song for the siren
As she heeds the dying Call
Heeds the dying call
