Stars on the Water Songtext
von Rodney Crowell

Down in Louisiana, bayous by and by
Pirogue pole or your natural soul
Keeps you tied to a tree high tide
Beer joint lights come on
And then the crowd starts rollin′ in

Pretty soon you got stars on the water
It looks just like stars on the water
You got stars on the water, let it rain

Beaumont to Biloxi
The sea breeze at your door
Gypsy rains, dang hurricanes
White silver sandy shore
The Blue Light Lounge is shinin'
Way out on the pier


It looks just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water, let it rain
(Alright!)

When it′s midnight down in Mobile
Shinning moonbeams on the bay
They come from miles around to dance the jukebox down
And dig the good time sounds they all play
And all across the harbour
Night lights shinin' on

It looks just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water
It looks just like stars on the water, let it rain

Pretty soon you got stars on the water
You got stars on the water
You got stars on the water, let it rain
