Corpus Christi Bay Todd Snider

[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
