If one can trust the title, the song is about a Texas girl at the funeral of her father. The image of the sailor is one not usually associated with the state of Texas, even if it has acces to the coast.
Here I am lost in the wind
Round in circles sailing
Like a ship that never comes in
Standing by myself
Sing a sad song for a good man
Sing a sad song for me
Sing a sad song for the sailor
A thousand miles from the sea
Here I am alone on the plain
Sun's going down
It's starting to rain
Papa, we'll go sailing
