South Coast of Texas Lyrics

	作词 : Clark
	The south coast of Texas is a thin slice of life
	It' s salty and hard it it stern as a knife
	Where the wind is for blwon' up hurricanes for showin'
	The snakes how to swim and the trees how to lean
	Chorus
	The shrimpers and their ladies are out in the beer joints
	Drinkin' em down for they sail with the dawn
	They're bound for the Mexican Bay of Campche
	And the deck hands are singin' adios Jole Blon
	There's snowbirds in search of that sunshine and night life
	And fond of greasin' palms down the beach as they're goin'
	This livin' on the edge of the waters of the world
	Demands the dignity of whooping cranes and
	The likes of Gilbert Roland
	Chorus
	In the cars of my youth how I tore thru those sand dunes
	Cut up my tires on them oyster shell roads
	But nothin' is forever say the old men in the shipyards
	Turnin' trees into shrimp oats Hell I guess they ought to know
	Chorus
