I'm on my way to Italy, from the Gulf of Mexico

My good gal's behind me, no lovin' for so long
D
I'm goin' back to Texas, cause that's where I belong

Life got so lonely on the ocean

There's too much time to dream of yesterday

If I could only carry out my notion

I'd hit the trail for Texas right away

I'm on my way to Italy, from the Gulf of Mexico

Ridin' on a tanker, and feelin' mighty low

But my good gal's behind me, no lovin' for so long

I'm goin' back to Texas, cause that's where I belong

I never thought when I was leavin',

I could get so blue out on the sea

But I'll bet you after all this grievin',

It's that good ol' Texas sun for me

For I'm on my way to Italy, from the Gulf of Mexico

Ridin' on a tanker, and feelin' mighty low
