1981 Down in Louisiana, bayous by and by Pirogue pole or your natural soul Keeps you tied to a tree high tide Beer joint lights come on And then the crowd starts rollin' in Chorus: Pretty soon you got stars on the water You got stars on the water It's like stars on the water, let it rain Beaumont to Biloxi Sea breeze at your door Gypsy rains, dang hurricanes White silver sandy shore "Blue Light" lounge is shinin' Way out on the view Chorus: It looks just like stars on the water Just like stars on the water Just like stars on the water, let it rain (guitar instrumental) When it's midnight down in Mobile Moonbeams on the bay They come from miles around to dance the jukebox down And dig the good time sounds they play All across the harbour Night lights shinin' in Chorus: It looks just like stars on the water Just like stars on the water Just like stars on the water, let it rain Chorus: Pretty soon ya got stars on the water You got stars on the water It's like stars on the water, let it rain - Notes: Background Vocals: Timothy B. Schmit |

You say you're heading out to
California You've heard the grapes are falling From the vine I was hoping you might have the Urge to write me But, I don't believe you will So never mind I was talking to a man down at Genesco He said they might be hiring any time I'm so tired of going any way the Wind blows And I thought that me and you But never mind [Chorus:] Never mind, never mind I'm just talkin' through the wine And you know that drinkin' always Makes me sad But before this night is through I better say I love you Or I'm gonna always wish that I had I first saw you pickin' oranges In Orlando All day you kept your ladder close To mine We froze in Georgia, burned up In Chicago And I always thought that we, But never mind Did you know today my baby called You daddy? Sometimes I've wished that she was Yours and mine I could call my brother Milt in Cincinnati And ask him for a loan, But never mind [Chorus] |
