The Ballad of Laverne and Captain Flint Guy Clark

[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?
