Lyrics Corpus Christi Bay

I worked the rigs from three to midnight on the Corpus Christi Bay

I'd get off and drink 'till daylight

Sleep the mornin' away

I had a plan to take my wages

Leave the rigs behind for good

But that life it is contagious and it gets down in your blood

I lived in Corpus with my brother

We were always on the run

We were bad for one another but we were good at havin' fun

We got stoned along the seawall

We got drunk and rolled a car

We knew the girls at every dance hall

Had a tab at every bar

If I could live my life all over it wouldn't matter anyway 'cos I never could stay sober on the Corpus Christi Bay

My brother had a wife and family

You know he gave them a good home

But his wife thought we were crazy and one day we found her gone

We threw her clothes into the car trunk

Her photographs, her rosary

We went to the pier and got drunk and threw it all into the sea

If I could live my life all over it wouldn't matter anyway 'cos I never could stay sober on the Corpus Christi Bay

Now my brother lives in Houston

He married for the second time

He got a good job with the union and it's keepin' him in line

He came to Corpus just this weekend

It was good to see him here

He said he finally gave up drinkin' then he ordered me a beer

If I could live my life all over it wouldn't matter anyway 'cos I never could stay sober on the Corpus Christi Bay
