Stars On The Water Lyrics - Jimmy Buffett

By: Rodney Crowell 

1981 

Down in Louisiana, bayous by and by 

Pirogue pole or your natural soul 

Keeps you tied to a tree high tide 

Beer joint lights come on 

And then the crowd starts rollin' in 

Chorus: 

Pretty soon you got stars on the water 

You got stars on the water 

It's like stars on the water, let it rain

Beaumont to Biloxi 

Sea breeze at your door 

Gypsy rains, dang hurricanes 

White silver sandy shore 

"Blue Light" lounge is shinin' 

Way out on the view 

Chorus: 

It looks just like stars on the water 

Just like stars on the water 

Just like stars on the water, let it rain 

(guitar instrumental) 

When it's midnight down in Mobile 

Moonbeams on the bay 

They come from miles around to dance the jukebox down 

And dig the good time sounds they play 

All across the harbour 

Night lights shinin' in 

Photos 

Chorus: 

It looks just like stars on the water 

Just like stars on the water 

Just like stars on the water, let it rain 

Chorus: 

Pretty soon ya got stars on the water 

You got stars on the water 

It's like stars on the water, let it rain
