Please, Ida Belle, don't cry
Ida Belle, don't cry this time
If you cry 'bout a nickel, you'll die 'bout a dime
She won't cry, but the money won't be mine

I love the way You do
I love the way You do
I love the way You do, good Lord
On this Gulfport Island Road

My captain's so mean on me
My captain's so mean on me
My captain's so mean on me, good Lord
On this Gulfport Island Road

The captain ain't here at sea
The captain ain't here at sea
The captain is gone, ain't seen, good Lord
On the Gulfport Island Road

Oh, it's the last fair deal gone down
The last fair deal gone down
The last fair deal gone down, good Lord
On this Gulfport Island Road

I'm workin' my way back home
I'm workin' my way back home
I'm workin' my way back home, good Lord
On this Gulfport Island Road

And that thing don't keep ringin' so soon, no
That thing don't keep ringin' so soon
That thing don't keep ringin' so soon
Good Lord, on that Gulfport Island Road
