Larry Joe Taylor - Once You Clear The Jettys lyrics

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
