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 CoastOut 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 oneKickin back when the line jerkedLord I guess my little prayer workedI reeled in and to my surpriseA mermaid Beauty at the end of the lineShe 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 Water She said “You know I’ve been looking for a good man So goin fishin was a good plan Now we goin low oh oh Way 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 swingNow 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 . . .
