[Verse]
We were gathered round the garbage can
Passing round the bottle
We were cold and burning anything
That was dry enough to burn
A shivering man said he had left
His family back in Boston
And I knew I'd hear a whole lot more
Before it came my turn
A bearded man in an army coat
Said, "The answer boys is Jesus"
And one called Joe said
"All I Know" in January hail
One guy said, "Let's have a drink
To Flagstaff, Arizona"
I thought I'd nearly freeze to death
Before I'd get to town
[Chorus]
About Mobile Bay
Magnolia blossom
Cool summer nights
Warm rolling sea
And all the dreams
Somewhere I'd lost 'em
Mobile Bay
Magnolia leaves
Sweet Rosa Lee
We were gathered round the garbage can
Passing round the bottle

A bearded man in an army coat
Said, "The answer boys is Jesus"
And one called Joe said
"All I Know" in January hail
One guy said, "Let's have a drink

About Mobile Bay

Cool summer nights
Warm rolling sea
And all the dreams
Somewhere I'd lost 'em
Mobile Bay
Magnolia leaves
