lyrics

Run away to some Mississippi town
Thought I saw Elvis he’s pushing 80 now
We’ll find work here my uncle says
Ain’t no drilling got keep my baby fed

Smell of oil still rides the wind
No oysters offered at the Sea Side Inn
It’s not my fault I need the pay
When the company calls we go to work that day

Her tears are made of sunshine
Her love goes down like moonshine
Still waters roll over me
Let my body drift out to sea

Boarded up schools rust where water flowed
Dust cover the corner drug’s empty rows
Would love to change my life and do what’s right
Will “right” put food on my table tonight

You have your jacket and your tie the costume of a bureaucrat
I fix your car wearing dungarees
You’ve been to Paris I’ve been to Lorton I’ve walked your dogs while you dined with kings
But have you been from sea to shining sea

Her tears are made of sunshine
Her love goes down like moonshine
Still waters roll over me
Let my body drift out to sea

Her tears are made of sunshine
Her love goes down like moonshine
Still waters roll over me
Let my body drift out to sea
Let my body drift out to sea

Let my body drift out to sea
Let my body drift out to sea
Let my body drift out to sea
Let my body drift out to sea
