Corpus Christi Bay Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I worked the rigs from three 'til midnight
On the Corpus Christi Bay
I'd get off and drink 'til daylight
Sleep the morning away

[Verse 2]
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

[Verse 3]
I lived in Corpus with my brother
We was always on the run
We were bad for one another
But we were good at having fun

[Verse 4]
We got stoned along the seawall
We got drunk and rolled a car
We knew the girls in every dance hall
Had a tab in every bar

[Chorus]
If I could live my life all over
It wouldn't matter anyway
I never could stay sober
Down on that Corpus Christi Bay

[Verse 5]
My brother had a wife and family
You know he gave 'em both a home
But his wife thought we were crazy
And one day we found her gone

[Verse 6]
We threw her clothes into the car trunk
Her photographs, her rosary
Went down to the pier and got drunk
Threw it all into the sea

[Chorus]
If I could live my life all over
It wouldn't matter anyway
'Cause I never could stay sober
Down on that Corpus Christi Bay

[Verse 7]
Now my brother lives in Houston
Married for the second time
Got a job with the union
It's keeping him in line

[Verse 8]
He came to Corpus just this weekend
It was good to see him here
He said he finally gave up drinking
He ordered me a beer

[Chorus]
If I could live my life all over
It wouldn't matter anyway
Well I never could stay sober
Down on that Corpus Christi Bay

[Outro]
If I could live my life all over
It wouldn't matter anyway
I never could stay sober
