The song is actually a riddle. Merrain Richardson (not sure of the spelling)is the name of a ship caught in a storm. A "roguish eye" is a lighthouse. Some versions of this folksong refer to is as a "rolling eye". Each verse of the song is a little bit of folk history about this ship. Each verse is a riddle. "Rain, rain the wind does blow. Stars are shining to and fro. Merrain Richardson said she'll die, if she don't find the fellow with the rolling eye."
"...She is handsome she is pretty, she is a girl from the Halifax City. She has lovers one-two-three. Please tell us who they be..."

What are the lyrics to blow by kesha?
(verse one) I think you got the best of me, You're sleepin' with the enemy, You left me all alone, alone, alone, alone. The beat drops, I'm so alone. My heart stops, I already know. You left me all alone, alone, alone, alone. (chorus) I'm sick and tired of the mess you've made me, You're never gonna catch me cry. You must be blind if you can't see you'll miss me 'til the day you die. Without me, You're nothin'! You must be blind if you can't see you'll miss me 'til the day you die. (verse two) I've let go, Finally over you. This drama, That you've put me through. I'm better all alone, alone, alone, alone. The beat drops, Your so alone. It's last call, And it's gotten old. Now look who's all alone, alone, alone, alone. (chorus) (bridge) I trusted you, You were the first. Then you lied, And it gets worse. You broke me down, Now, just look around. (Who's all alone?) Who's all alone now? (chorus)
