Audio + Lyrics - "The Ocean Mist" (The Mallett Brothers Band

If you find yourself a-driftin’ 

Sailin’ out to sea

In the vicinity of Block Island

Won’t you do somethin’ for me

Take this package to my old friend

A landlocked buccaneer

Workin’ the soundboard at a beach bar

Drinkin’ Narragansett beer 

There must be seven million pirates

That have walked right through that door

There must be seven hundred bodies 

Buried underneath the floor

And for someone with ambition

It’s easy to make a shilling 

Start by sweepin’ up the ashes

End up making a killing

And the Ocean Mist ain’t goin’ nowhere

’Til we’re all dead and gone

‘Cause the pilings go straight down to hell

And the devil’s holdin’ on

And if you don’t find that buried treasure

That you’ve been searching for

Well I’ll be damned if you don’t have yourself a good time

Go easy on the drinkin’ 

And take it easy with your fists

And if they question that I sent you 

Keep this bracelet on your wrist

You’ll always have an ally

In peril and in Trish

And if you find yourself a-starvin’ 

Well you can always live on fish

And the Ocean Mist ain’t goin’ nowhere

’Til we’re all dead and gone

‘Cause the pilings go straight down to hell

And the devil’s holdin’ on

And if you don’t find that buried treasure

That you’ve been searching for

Well I’ll be damned if you don’t have yourself a good time

Yeah I’ll be damned if you don’t have yourself a good time

Yeah I’ll be damned if you don’t have yourself a time
