I'm in Davey Jones Locker? Just for that I am going to tell you the origin of that term.

Davey Jones is a corruption of the term Duffie Jonah. Duffie is an east indie term for a kind of ghost. Jonah was of course the biblical prophet who was swallowed by a giant fish. Sailors heard natives referring to the ghost of Jonah and thought they were talking about some sailor who had been lost at sea.

The locker of course refers to the foot locker commonly used by sailors on ships to secure their personal property.
