New Gulf Coast Blues

I done pack my belong

Gonna leave my woes

Goin' to a better place

With a smile upon my face

When that steam boat blows

And that Gulf stream 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 to the Mobile Bay

I'm gonna let that cool stream of water

Flow over my head someday

Tell me mister mailman

What is on your mind?

Tell me mister mailman

What is on your mind?

If you pass my door

So glad you obliged

My eyes are brown

My teeth are pearly white

My eyes are brown

My teeth are pearly white

Because my skin is dark

Don't mean my heart ain't right
