Sounds like the Walloping Windowblind...
"A capital ship for an ocean trip was the Walloping Windowblind,
No gale that blew dismayed her crew or troubled her captain's mind.
The man at the wheel was taught to feel contempt for the wildest blow...
And it often appeared when the weather had cleared that he'd been in his
bunk below."
I have no idea who wrote this or when - I've been singing it since I was a
kid. If you want the whole thing and nobody's beaten me to it ask and
I'll email it.
