Good Morning Captain
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well there's a ruckus on the levee
Unruly crowd on the courthouse steps
And if I make it till Sunday
I'm sho'nuff gonna ask the good Lord for help
With a moutfull of salt I try to explain
If money was sand I couldn't hold one grain
I feel like a thief that knows he's been framed
For leaving the watch but stealing the chain
Good morning, captain
I wish there was another way
But my baby is wantin
Me to roll around in her bed all day
Well the late nights got me reeling
Spillin out the bottle right into the next day
Got a funny little feeling gonna be like this until my dying day
There's mud in my eye but I can still see
Everybody in town is tryin to murder me
If they don't get me s'pose the hangman will
I better think twice about making this deal
Good morning, captain
I wish there was another way
But my baby is wantin
Me to roll around in her bed all day
Magnolia, magnolia
Let me rest under the shade of your leaves
Good morning, captain
I wish there was another way
But my baby is wantin
Me to roll around in her bed all day
