[Verse 1]
Old Carlisle needs some money
He's runnin' a seine out off the point
We'll all go help him though
Commercial season's closed
We might all wind up in the joint
There's bright lights out on the sand bar
Hear the donkey motor whine
The donkey man minds his business
I know to be mindin' mind
I learned from the best
Hear them crabbers cuss the weather
And they cuss the government too
'Cause nowadays crabbin' and fishin'
Hangin' on to a pot to piss in
Is just about the best a man can do
[Chorus 1]
It's hard not to cry and cuss
When this old world is just bigger than us
And all we got is pride and trust in our kind
[Verse 2]
Old Carlisle and Uncle Freddy
Don't you know they've seen some times
They remember gas light
Oyster war machine gun fights
I wished I'd known 'em in their prime
Old Carlisle needs some money
He's runnin' a seine out off the point
We'll all go help him though
Commercial season's closed
We might all wind up in the joint
There's bright lights out on the sand bar
Hear the donkey motor whine
The donkey man minds his business
I know to be mindin' mind
I learned from the best
Hear them crabbers cuss the weather
And they cuss the government too
'Cause nowadays crabbin' and fishin'
Hangin' on to a pot to piss in
Is just about the best a man can do
[Chorus 1]
It's hard not to cry and cuss
When this old world is just bigger than us
And all we got is pride and trust in our kind
[Verse 2]
Old Carlisle and Uncle Freddy
Don't you know they've seen some times
They remember gas light
Oyster war machine gun fights
I wished I'd known 'em in their prime
