Intro: A D A D A 

A                                             D         A 
Lu lives by the river and she's got herself a good good man 
       A                                D    A 
Spends half the year off shore in lower Alabam 
    A                                                          D          A 
Her friends say she should leave him and come join them in the west coast sand 
        A                                                 D    A 
But she knows she's got a keeper and they'll never really understand 
A  Ab  F#m Ab A    D   A 
un-der-sta-aa-and 

           D                                               E 
She puts a line in the water when the sun comes up, starts drinkin' when it's goin' down 
A                                       D 
Dancin' all alone to the radio till her man comes back around 
                                      E 
She might go down to Pensacola, maybe lay out on the ol' gulf shore 
    A                                D 
But she don't go to bars at home without him anymore 
                                              E 
She don't care about what they say, she don't listen anyway 

A D A D A 

        A                                         D  A 
All the roughneck rounders playing cards around a TV set 
A                                         D        A 
Waitin' around for somethin' that hadn't happened yet 
A                                              D     A 
Jokin' with a dancer she says, "I can help you to forget" 
       A                                                 D   A 
But he knows he's got a keeper so he smiles and lights a cigarette 
    A    Ab  F#m Ab A    D A 
And tips his haa-aa-aat 

            D                                                E 
He puts his head on the pillow when the sun comes up, starts workin' when it's going down 
A                                         D 
Melting hot steel down in Bienville, just waiting on a turnaround 
                                                E 
He starts thinkin' about Pensacola, he could be fishin' on the ol' gulf shore 
    A                                    D 
But he don't like to do those things without her anymore 
                                            E 
He don't care about what they say, he never listened anyway 

A D A 
A D A 
A Ab F#m Ab A 
D A 

          D                                               E                          
They put their lines in the water when the sun comes up, start drinkin' when it's going down 
A                                        D 
Dancing real slow to the radio cause her man's come back around 
                                             E 
They might go down to Pensacola, do a little fishin' on the ol' gulf shore 
A                                         D 
They don't like to stay out all night the way they did before 
                                               E 
They don't care about what they say, she never listens anyway
