cJ
Mobile Bay, 1864
Near the end of the Civil War
I captained a Union ship of the line
Off the coast of cmerica
We ruled the seas
The war was nearly
flows
You'll hear me say goodbye
Because there's a reason why
The Gulf of Mexico
Flows in to the Mobile Bay
The Gulf of Mexico
Flows in
before I'd get to tell
About Mobile Bay, magnolia blossoms
Cool summer nights
Warm rolling seas, and all my dreams
Somewhere I'd lost them
Mobile Bay
Oh jak chciałbym być tam w Mobile Bay
Rwać bawełnę cały dzień
Ale noszę cukier do ładowni w dół
Noszę cukier do ładowni w dół
Dalej hej jo I w dół i
Mobile Bay
New York town has got a gifted way to keep a girl down
But that never was the Mobile way, no, no
That never was the Mobile way
Was you ever in Mobile Bay,
Bonny laddie, hielan' laddie,
Loading cotton by the day,
Bonny hielan' laddie
Was you ever 'round Cape Horn,
Bonny laddie,
on another day.
Was you ever in Mobile Bay, bonny laddie, hielan' laddie, loading cotton by the day, bonny hielan' laddie.
Was you ever 'round Cape Horn,
slow?
Was you ever in Baltimore
Dancing on the sanded floor?
Was you ever in Mobile Bay,
Screwing cotton by the day?
Was you on the Brummalow,
Where
the way
She lies on the bottom of old Mobile Bay
Where the ghosts of his father and his brother are near
They protect him and tell him there's nothing
Take a trip from here
Bogalusa, Baton Rouge
New Orleans, Picayune
Boloxi, Pascagoula
Mobile Bay,Big full moon
Diesel up just north of Destin
to the floor
And I'll send all the Hill Boys to hell.
It's Decoration Day
And I've got a family in Mobile Bay
And they've never seen my daddy's grave.
But that
Day
And I've got a family in Mobile Bay
And they've never seen my daddy's grave
But that don't bother me, it ain't marked anyway
'Cause I got
see you on another day.
Was you ever in Mobile Bay, bonny laddie, hielan' laddie,
Loading cotton by the day, bonny hielan' laddie.
Was you ever
was from a mama that I met down on mobile bay.
She said, "honey won't you please send me down some bail.
They caught me fooling around with
I left the Mobile Bay moonshine and devil in hell
There's nothing
I cannot be
There's nothing
Like the open sea
When the wind blows wild
I can feel
down to Baton Rouge
A Southern version of a European river cruise
Baby girl we don't need a runway
We can get a lotta places in my Chevrolet
Like Mobile
the creme brulee
Now he's floating face down outta Mobile Bay
CHORUS
Never let em see you sweat
Yeah there's a spray for that
Never let em see you cry
It'll
the mornin', about a quarter til 9
I was on Interstate 10, west bound
After so many years, and too many tears
No way I was turnin' around
I hit Mobile Bay, and I
man we don't play
From Alabama yeah mobile bay
Grew up backroads and straightaways
Wearing blue jeans till my hair turns gray
Bowing my head everyday I
almost hear the waves
See those gorgeous greens and blues
Smell the shrimp boil and the coconut oil
It's a gulf coast rendezvous
Perdido Key to Mobile Bay
Mobile Bay
To Abu Dhabi you got me
She made it rain for a thousand dollars
That's a lot of ones
Yeah
We in the club cutting up
We done popped about
like a sunset over Mobile Bay
Now when I leave Alabama I don't stay gone too long these days
I'm eighty-three and dying I miss my husband and my son
something about
that night in Mobile Bay
When you slipped off your heels
And we walked barefoot in the sand
I don't remember the waves, but still to this
miles away
Brought me back to my sweet honey hometown on the Mobile bay
Thirty years, I ain't been back here, so much has changed
The old mill's gone
