Salty water in my hair
kissing you in muddy flats
ankle deep in river bottom
I wanna love you just like that
We'll make love by the bayou
dance in the coastal rain
and I'll never complain
if every day's the same

[Chorus]
Down in Pascagoula
where my soul will always stay
Let's go live a simple life
like there's no other way

I'll build a shoreline cabin
where we can go to live
We can fish the backstreams
in my flatbottom skiff
For money, I can guide tours
out on Biloxi Bay
and you can sell fresh produce
on the weekdays

[Chorus]
Down in Pascagoula
where my soul will always stay
Let's go live a simple life
like there's no other way

[Bridge]
It all sounds so tempting
but it's just a dream I know
when life gets complicated
I just let my mind go

Down to Pascagoula
where my soul will always stay
I'd love to live the simple life
like there's no other way

[Tag]
Salty water in my hair
kissing you in muddy flats
ankle deep in river bottom
I wanna love you just like that
