Cool Blue Water Words & Music By John BarrettCopyright 2022 – BMI Nashville
I was wishin I could disappearGo fishin where the water’s clearSo I loaded up my truck and droveA hundred miles to the Gulf Coast
Out on A pier with a cold beerMy fishin pole and my fishin gearI cast out - as far as I couldI said a prayer - I hoped it was a good one
Kickin back when the line jerkedLord I guess my little prayer workedI reeled in and to my surpriseA mermaid Beauty at the end of the line
She said “Come with me baby cause I gotta plan”. Then she smiled and she took my handShe took me Oh, Oh, OhDown in The Cool Blue WaterShe said “You know I’ve been looking for a good manSo goin fishin was a good planNow we goin low oh ohWay down in the Cool Blue Water”
“Then together we swam away Out past Pensacola BayAnd when we got to the coral reefWe dove down and I couldn’t believe - my eyes”
A little cottage in a valleyA Sea horse in the coraleeI thought I heard a church bell ringCatfish settin on a porch swing
Now I’m living such a good life2 kids and a beautiful wifeA mermaid daughter a Manatee sonGood Lord we have a lot of fun now – Come with me baby . . .
