[JAKE]
Oh, I`m a-goin' out to the Blackfish banks
No matter what the wedder say
And when I say I'm goin' I means goin'
And I'm leaving at the break o' day
[JAKE and FISHERMEN]
It take a long pull to get there, huh!
It take a long pull to get there, huh!
It take a long pull to get there
[JAKE]
But I'll anchor in the Promised land
[JAKE and FISHERMEN]
In the Promised land

And lawdy, if I meet Mister Hurricane
And Hurricane tell me no
I`ll take old Mister Hurricane by the pants
And I'll throw him in the jailhouse do'
[JAKE and FISHERMEN]
It take a long pull to get there, huh!
It take a long pull to get there, huh!
It take a long pull to get there
[JAKE]
But I'll anchor in the Promised land
In the Promised land
[JAKE]
I got a blister on my sittin' down place
I got a blister in my hand
But I`m gonna row this little boat, trust me Gawd
Till I anchor in the Promised land
[JAKE and FISHERMEN]
It take a long pull to get there, huh!
It take a long pull to get there, huh!
It take a long pull to get there
[JAKE]
But I`ll anchor in the Promised land
[JAKE and FISHERMEN]
In the Promised land
