[Verse 1]
Used to drive a pipeline
From here to Blind Man's Bend
Tried and ride the main line
I went there with my friends
Like to be together
Like to be alone
Yes, and what I like best, is I like it like this
And I stay with you at home

[Chorus]
Enjoy the present company
Eat some grits and hominy
Couldn't get much better for me
I enjoy your company, oooh

[Verse 2]
Used to drive an ocean liner
Sunk in '52
Off the coast of Indochina
Yes, I sunk there, too
Frost on the jewel glass windows here
Is ringing in the dawn, my dear
Spring is busting out of my ears
I wish that I was home
[Chorus]
Enjoy the present company
Eat some grits and hominy
It couldn't get much better for me
I enjoy your company, oooh

[Verse 3]
You can wave a banner
I don't mind if you do
I'm running back to Louisiana
I'm gonna drink that mountain dew
Used to be a loner
And I'd run the highway tolls
What I run now is, isn't running anyhow
And I stay with you at home

[Chorus]
So joy to the present company
Joy to the grits and hominy
And a joy to getting better for me
I enjoy the company, oooh
