What Are The Lyrics For The Ballad of Laverne and Captain Flint By Steve Earle & the Dukes?

Here comes Martha running down the pier
Looks like Captain Flint is here
You get the bow, I'll get the stern
Lord, would you look at that Laverne
Flint's got shrimp from the deep blue sea
And buckets of fish for you and me

Old Flint's boat is fine
And she's called the Miss-Inclined
And there's no home port painted on her stern
And they say she's like a ghost
Up and down that Texas coast
But you saw him, didn't you Laverne?

Now Daddy says Flint is a weird old bird
And what's more, I have heard
His nets are charmed by a woman who knew
How to work that Louisiana voodoo
Laverne get away from my boat, you hear
Your mama don't want you hangin' around here

Laverne told him, she said:
"Old Flint's boat is fine
And she's called the Miss-Inclined
No home port painted on her stern
And they say she's like a ghost
Up and down that Texas coast"
But you saw him, didn't you Laverne?

Martha, Martha, tell me please
That it's not Laverne that I see
There on the deck of the Miss-Inclined
With Captain Flint, I must be blind
Laverne, girl what's the matter with you
Old Captain Flint, he put a spell on you

Old Flint's boat is fine
And she's called the Miss-Inclined
No home port painted on her stern
And they say she's like a ghost
Up and down that Texas coast
But you saw him, didn't you Laverne?

Old Flint's boat is fine
And she's called the Miss-Inclined
No home port painted on her stern
They say she's like a ghost
Up and down that Texas coast
But you saw him, didn't you Laverne?

Old Flint's boat is fine
And she's called the Miss-Inclined
No home port painted on her stern
And they say she's like a ghost
Up and down that Texas coast
But you saw him, didn't you Laverne?
