Lyrics

Down in Louisiana, bayous by and by
Pirogue pole or your natural soul
Keeps you tied to a tree high tide
Beer joint lights come on
And then the crowd starts rollin' in
You got stars on the water
It's like stars on the water, let it rain
Beaumont to
Biloxi Sea breeze at your door
Gypsy rains, dang hurricanes
White silver sandy shore "Blue Light" lounge is shinin'
Way out on the view
Just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water, let it rain (guitar instrumental)
When it's midnight down in
Mobile Moonbeams on the bay
They come from miles around to dance the jukebox down
And dig the good time sounds they play
All across the harbour
Night lights shinin' in
Just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water, let it rain
You got stars on the water
It's like stars on the water, let it rain
