Good Morning Captain

Well, there's a ruckus on the levee
Unruly crowd on the courthouse steps
And if I make it to Sunday
I'm sho 'nuff gonna ask the Good Lord for help

With a mouthful of salt I tried to explain
If money was sand I couldn't hold one grain
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 wanting
Me to roll around in her bed all day

Oh well, the late nights got me reeling
Spilling 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 trying 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 wanting
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 wanting
Me to roll around in her bed all day

Good morning captain
I wish there was another way
But my baby is wanting
Me to roll around in her bed all day
