Greg Gobel - Atlantic Seaboard Salt Whispers Lyrics

Sitting on the dock over the bay, my friend
I heard the bottle wash up on the waves, my friend
Looked down at my feet and broke that glass, my friend
And this is what it said, oh yeah
Well this is what it said

'No, I won't be a fool no more
No, I won't be a fool no more
No, I won't be a fool again
No, I won't be a fool no more'

Making up for lost time in Baltimore
Chesapeake Bay Bridge in 1984
Atlantic seaboard salt whispers in my face again
And this is how the words, they went, oh yeah
And this is how the words, they went

'No, I won't be...'

I could tell you 'bout the way people are venomous and mean
And I could tell you 'bout the way they say things that just don't mean a thing
I could tell you a little more 'bout that lost bottle at the beach
And I could tell you a little more about the wisdom that it preached
So, I looked under my bed
And I looked into the dark
And I looked through all the dark places all up inside my head
And I looked into my soul
And I looked into my heart
And I looked in my eyes and I knew

Shelling crabs and drinking beer in Baltimore
Constellation sloops since 1854
Atlantic seaboard salt whispers in my face again
'No, I won't be a fool no more'
