Track Insight / Lyrics

You park your truck on shell and clay Cypress knees poke through the gray Spanish moss drapes low and thick Gator eyes reflect your pick Thermos steam curls toward the sky Bayou watches, bayou waits Mud and water, iron gates You count the hours, slow and deep Promises a watchman keeps Night shift pays what daylight owes Radio crackles static low Cajun French on AM glow Catfish jump near cypress roots Fireflies trade Morse code salutes Your boots rest dry on splintered wood Bayou watches, bayou waits Mud and water, iron gates You count the hours, slow and deep Promises a watchman keeps Night shift pays what daylight owes Fog rolls thick off black water's skin Hides the pipeline, hides the gin You've seen the river take and give Watched three decades learn to live Meter runs whether wheels turn or stall Bayou watches, bayou waits Mud and water, iron gates You count the hours, slow and deep Promises a watchman keeps Night shift pays what daylight owes Owl calls once from hollow oak Smoke curls slow from your last smoke Water remembers what land forgets Dawn breaks wet on silhouette Shift relief pulls up the drive Fresh coffee keeps the dark alive You hand the keys, you share the code Another night down the same old road Home smells like rain and crawfish boil Bayou watches, bayou waits Mud and water, iron gates You count the hours, slow and deep Promises a watchman keeps Night shift pays what daylight owes Porch light cuts through morning mist Another watch logged, another kissed
