Rodney Crowell
Stars On The Water
[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
Pretty soon you got stars on the water
Just like stars on the water
You got stars on the water
Let it rain

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
It looks just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water
Let it rain
Alright
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
When it's midnight down in Mobile
Shinin' 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 harbor
Night lights shinin' on

[Chorus]
It's just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water
Let it rain

[Chorus]
You got stars on the water
You got stars on the water
You got stars on the water
Let it rain
