《The South Coast Of Texas》歌词

[00:00:00] The South Coast Of Texas - Guy Clark

[00:00:01] The south coast of Texas is a thin' slice of life

[00:00:05] It's salty and hard it is stern as a knife

[00:00:11] Where the wind is for blown up hurricanes for showing

[00:00:17] The snakes how to swim and the trees how to lean

[00:00:23] Shrimpers and their ladies are out in the beer joints

[00:00:28] Drinking 'em down for they sail with the dawn

[00:00:34] They're bound for the Mexican bay of Campeche

[00:00:39] And the deck hands are singing adios Jole Blong

[00:00:47] Other snowbirds in search of that sunshine and night life

[00:00:52] And fond of greasing palms down the beach as they're going

[00:00:58] Ooh this living on the edge of the waters of the world

[00:01:03] Demands the dignity of whooping cranes and

[00:01:06] The likes of gilbert roland

[00:01:09] And the shrimpers and their ladies are out in the beer joints

[00:01:15] Drinking 'em down for they sail with the dawn

[00:01:20] They're bound for the Mexican bay of Campeche

[00:01:26] And the deck hands are singing adios Jole Blong

[00:01:46] In the cars of my youth how I tore thru those sand dunes

[00:01:51] Cut up my tires on them oyster shell roads

[00:01:56] But nothing is forever say the old men in the shipyards

[00:02:01] Turning trees into shrimp oats hell I guess they ought to know

[00:02:07] And the shrimpers and their ladies are out in the beer joints

[00:02:13] Drinking 'em down for they sail with the dawn

[00:02:19] They're bound for the Mexican bay of Campeche

[00:02:24] And the deck hands are singing adios Jole Blong

[00:02:30] Which shrimpers and their ladies are out in the beer joints

[00:02:36] Drinking 'em down for they sail with the dawn

[00:02:41] They're bound for the Mexican bay of Campeche

[00:02:46] And the deck hands are singing adios Jole Blong

[00:02:52] And the deck hands are singing adios Jole Blong
