Willie Nelson - Seaman's Blues Lyrics
[Chorus:]On my way to Italy from the Gulf of MexicoRiding on a tanker, feeling mighty lowMy good gal's behind me, no loving for so longI'm going back to Texas, for that's where I belongNights are so lonely on the oceanTo much time to dream of yesterdayIf only I could carry out my notionAnd hit the trail for Texas right away[Chorus:]On my way to Italy from the Gulf of MexicoRiding on a tanker, feeling mighty lowMy good gal's behind me, no loving for so longI'm going back to Texas, for that's where I belongI never thought I was leavingI could get so blue out on the seaBut I'll bet you after all this grievingIts that good old Texas soil for me[Chorus:]On my way to Italy from the Gulf of MexicoRiding on a tanker, feeling mighty lowMy good gal's behind me, no loving for so longI'm going back to Texas, for that's where I belong
