Down In Cedar Key

When the Sun sets low
Down in Cedar Key
You look across the pond
See what you can see
The Gulf of Mexico
Seems so long ago
Just around the bin
Here it comes again
Almost home, almost home

When you cross the number four
And you see the golden shore
Count your days
Don't worry for tomorrow
You know down here
You can beg, steal, and borrow

Down in Cedar Key
Down in Cedar Key
Down in Cedar Key

Ohhh, the salty breeze
Is calling me
It's rusting my old pickup truck
It's rusting me
The Gulf of Mexico
Just won't let me go
I've still got some pepper
In my salty hair
Living free, living free

When you cross the number three
And you smell the salty sea
Count your days
But don't worry for tomorrow
You know down here
Time don't beg, steal, or borrow

The tide rolls in
The tide rolls out
Seasons change
And there's no doubt
People come
And people leave
But I'll always be

Walking down
That old dock street
The waves are crashing
On my soul
And on my feet
The Gulf of Mexico
How I love her so
My heart will always long for the sea
Long for the sea

When you cross the Back Bayou
The journey ends for me for you
No more yesterdays
And no more tomorrows
Forget your heartache
Your pain, grief, and sorrow

Down in Cedar Key
Down in Cedar Key
Down in Cedar Key
