Meaning of the lyrics:
[boatmen’s call]
I am heading down the river to Sakata. Stay well and don’t catch the flu.
The fish sauce stew with forked radish is too salty to eat.
The yamase wind [generally a cold northeast wind that blows from early summer to summer, but here it refers to a wind blowing from land to sea] has started blowing. Let’s give up going any further. Don't blame me, blame the wind.
It's all for the sake of that girl. No matter how much I earn, it’s never enough.
