Jack Ingram - Biloxi lyrics

rate me

Where in hell did you go

You left us all alone I wasn't even eighteen

You never turned around

Like some kid out on the run

You headed for the fun down in Biloxi

And the Gulf of Mexico

Where I guess the girls they're pretty

And nobody says it's late

And you can stay out all night long and never have hell to pay

Down in Biloxi

Even when you're forty-one

Just forget your problems

Down in Biloxi

And you only came around

To take a rest and come down from Biloxi

But you were not the same

Pretending that you cared

Pretending you were there and not in Biloxi

And the Gulf of Mexico

(Chorus)

Did you really think you'd find

More than you left behind back home in Houston

We all felt the loss

I don't mean to bring you down

But I wonder what you found there in Biloxi

Tell me, was it worth the cost

Well I hope the girls were pretty

And nobody said it was late

And I hope you stayed out all night long and never had hell to pay

Down in Biloxi

When you were forty-one

You forgot your problems

Down in Biloxi
