[Verse 1]
Here comes Martha running down the pier
Lord, looks like Captain Flint is here
You get the bow, I get the stern
Lord, would you look at that Laverne?
Flint's got shrimp from the deep blue sea
And buckets of fish for you and me
[Chorus]
Old Flint's boat is fine and she's called the Miss-Inclined
And there's no home port painted on the stern
They say she's like a ghost up and down that Texas coast
But you saw him, aw didn't you, Laverne?
[Verse 2]
Daddy says Flint is a weird old bird
And what's more I have heard
That his nets are charmed by a woman who knew
How to work that Louisiana voodoo
Laverne, get away from that boat, you hear
Your mama don't want you hanging round here
Laverne told her, she said
[Chorus]
That Old Flint's boat is fine and she's called the Miss-Inclined
And there's no home port painted on the stern, yes ma'am
They say she's like a ghost up and down that Texas coast
But you saw him, aw didn't you, Laverne?
Here comes Martha running down the pier
Lord, looks like Captain Flint is here
You get the bow, I get the stern
Lord, would you look at that Laverne?
Flint's got shrimp from the deep blue sea
And buckets of fish for you and me
[Chorus]
Old Flint's boat is fine and she's called the Miss-Inclined
And there's no home port painted on the stern
They say she's like a ghost up and down that Texas coast
But you saw him, aw didn't you, Laverne?
[Verse 2]
Daddy says Flint is a weird old bird
And what's more I have heard
That his nets are charmed by a woman who knew
How to work that Louisiana voodoo
Laverne, get away from that boat, you hear
Your mama don't want you hanging round here
Laverne told her, she said
[Chorus]
That Old Flint's boat is fine and she's called the Miss-Inclined
And there's no home port painted on the stern, yes ma'am
They say she's like a ghost up and down that Texas coast
But you saw him, aw didn't you, Laverne?
