Songtext von Good Morning Captain

Well there's a ruckus on the levee Unruly crowd on the courthouse steps And if I make it till Sunday I'm sho'nuff gonna ask the good Lord for help With a moutfull of salt I try to explain If money was sand I couldn't hold one grain I 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 wantin Me to roll around in her bed all day Well the late nights got me reeling Spillin 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 tryin 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 wantin 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 wantin Me to roll around in her bed all day
