Tom Rush - Long John lyrics

Down around Biloxi Pretty girls are swimming in the sea Oh they look like sisters in the ocean The boy will fill his pail with salted water And the storms will blow from off towards New Orleans The sun shines on Biloxi The air is filled with vapors from the sea And the boy will dig a pool beside the ocean He sees creatures from a dream under the water And the sun will set from off towards New Orleans The stars can see Biloxi The stars can find their faces in the sea We are walking in the evening by the ocean We are splashing naked in the water And the sky is red from off towards New Orleans
