Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sun come up on the harbor
Hands smell like salt and sin
Got a cooler full of red-claw
Baby
And a trunk full of trouble tucked in
Uncle taught me how to rig those traps
Cousin showed me other ways to eat
Dock man winkin' as he looks away
Cash payin' for the kids' new cleats
[Chorus]
I got lobster money blues
Dirty bills in these work-worn shoes
Do what I gotta do
Just to keep this roof
Prayin' that the Lord don't choose
Tonight to come collect these dues
I got lobster money blues
For the ones that I can't lose
[Verse 2]
Buddy pulls up in a side by side
Mud kissed
Grinnin' ear to ear
Says
“Man
I got that extra carton”
Whispers prices in my ear
Bad back
Baby need braces
Power company callin' again
Lines on the table
Lines on my face
Can't tell where one thing ends
[Chorus]
I got lobster money blues
Dirty bills in these work-worn shoes
Do what I gotta do
Just to keep this roof
Prayin' that the Lord don't choose
Tonight to come collect these dues
I got lobster money blues
For the ones that I can't lose
[Bridge]
Sheriff's truck slow-roll past the house
Spotlight sweepin' through the pines (oh Lord)
I clutch that picture of my daughter
Swear I'm done a hundred times
But that phone keep ringin' after midnight
Same old devil on the line
He say
“Son
You want that quiet life?
You gotta walk through a storm sometimes”
[Chorus]
I got lobster money blues
Dirty bills in these work-worn shoes
Do what I gotta do
Just to keep this roof
Prayin' that the Lord don't choose
Tonight to come collect these dues
I got lobster money blues
For the ones that I can't lose
