The Ballad of C.C. Boudreaux - Zachary Richard

I've seen it all
How many ports of call
All the way from Al Hudayeh
Yokohama to Bombay
And Panama
Not a bad life
In the merchant marine
Not a wife but many lovers
A tatoo for all the others
Above my heart
I'm going home to Louisiana
See the old folks back at home
All my wandering days are over
I want to see you again
So many friends
So many friends I have lost
I've seen men
Break down on the ocean
Pray to God to calm the storm
To calm the storm
There's the lights on the port of Houston
It won't be long before we're through
It won't be long before it's over
I want to see you
See you again
