The Pascagoula Run
------------------
by Jimmy Buffett and Jay Oliver
Billy pulled in in a Jaguar
Red convertable sixty-five
Headed home to Mississippi, he'd been around the world
He was that black sheep uncle of mine
His ship had come in, he was looking to sin
He was singing his own song
When he yelled from the drive, my heart came alive
"Jimmy boy come along"
Chorus:
It's time to see the world
It's time to kiss the girl
It's time to cross the wide meridian
Grab your bag and take a chance
Time to learn a Cajun dance
Kid you're going to see the morning sun
On the Pascagoula run
Friday night at the Stateline bar
Where the waterfront people dwell
Better watch my step if the floor caves in
I'll go right straight to hell
There were pinball machines and cajun queens
Men with knives and scars
Billy moved across the floor, the real hard core
And said, "Here's where it gets bizarre"
Repeat Chorus
What do the ladies say, what do the ladies say
What do the ladies say, what do the ladies say
What do the ladies say, what do the ladies say
What do the ladies say, what do the ladies say
Bring that young man over here
We're going to buy that boy a beer
And that ain't all we're going to do
Bring your crazy uncle too
