Well, there's a ruckus on the levee Unruly crowd on the courthouse steps And if I make it to SundayI'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
