Al Duvall - Minor Key Lyrics

Key West-headed, to drink and be bedded
And cause some burnin' shame
The night is foggy, the captain is groggy
And Skipper Joe is his name
We heard birds callin', some blackbirds callin'
"Come and sail to our quay!"
A sound so eerie, so haunting and dreary
That the cityfolk shimmy its way

And Skipper Joe lies down below
Too scared to see that minor key

Now here's the moral: we struck on coral
And folks, we feared for the worst
A cockle-shell chorus came rowing out for us
The linen and silver first
The wreckers and divers, they grabbed the survivors
The're brought ashore on a raft
With picks and shovels, they're hobbled in hovels
And work way down in the shaft

And Skipper Joe lies down below
Too scared to see that Minor Key

The king and queen are just barely 16-er
In the palm frond palace they play
They throw the traitors to panthers and gators
And their mother out in the bay
The king done told 'er, the 18-and-older
Should set out for the seven seas
The old folks groan, but they're set up alone
On a raft made of bread and cheese
And Skipper Joe lies down below
Too scared to see that Minor Key
And Skipper Joe lies down below
Too scared to see that Minor Key
