Surfer boys, bobbin' and a-weavin'
Down at the Horace Caldwell
Crew boat captain, bringin' in the boys
Been a long time gone workin' in the gulf
Out on the offshore oil wells
Bet they're thirsty as hell
Me, I got the red on the left, green on the right
Loadin' up and headin' out of here tonight
Out in the Gulf of Mexico
Batten down the hatches, you better get ready
It's a whole nother world once you clear the jettys
First up watch, pitchin' and a-rollin'
Out in the middle of the ocean
Little heavy weather, gotta heave to
Gonna ride it out, we're gonna make it through
We'll be prayin' for a little sun
I could use me some
Yeah, I got a squall on my left, the land in sight
Looks like it's gonna get rough tonight
Out in the Gulf of Mexico
So batten down the hatches, you better get ready
It's a whole nother world outside of the jettys
Out here in the gulf you're livin' day to day
When the weather gets rough your livin' wave to wave
You try to tell yourself you're gonna be ok
(Instrumental)
The surfer boys, still bobbin' and a-weavin'
Down at the Horace Caldwell
Crew boat captain, takin' out the boys
Be a long time gone, they're workin' in the gulf
Out on the offshore oil wells
Hung over as hell
Me, I got the green on the left, red on the right
Headin' back into Port A tonight
From the Gulf of Mexico
So batten down the hatches, you better get ready
It's a whole nother world once you hit the jettys
Batten down the hatches, you better get ready
It's a whole nother world once you hit the jettys
