Biloxi

Where in hell did you go?

You left us all alone I wasn't even eighteen

You never turned around

Like some kid out on the run

You headed for the fun down in Biloxi

And the Gulf of Mexico

Where I guess the girls they're pretty

And nobody says it's late

And you can stay out all night long

And never have hell to pay down in Biloxi

Even when your forty one

You just forget you're problems down in Biloxi

And you only came around

To take a rest and come down from Biloxi

But you were not the same

Pretending that you cared

Pretending you were there and not in Biloxi

And the Gulf of Mexico

Where I guess the girls they're pretty

And nobody says it's late

And you can stay out all night long

And never have hell to pay down in Biloxi

Even when you're forty one

You just forget your problems down in Biloxi

Well, did you really think you'd find

More than you left behind back home in Houston?

We all felt the loss

Well, I don't mean to bring you down

But I wonder what you found there in Biloxi

And tell me was it worth the cost

Well, I hope the girls were pretty

And nobody said it was late

I hope you stayed out all night long

And never had hell to pay down in Biloxi

Even when your forty one

You just forgot your problems down in Biloxi
