Lyrics

Sun goin' down on the Intracoastal Waterway
We were Fripp Island bound
Sentry at the guard post said we had to go away
It's a private community now
So we beat it down the road with boiled peanuts and some Cokes
Lookin' for a sunset for free
Came across an old boardwalk surrounded by the marsh
Seagulls wheelin' over you and me
Beaufort-by-the-Sea
Twenty-six miles from Yemassee
That old Sheldon church sure been burned down
Spanish moss hangin' all around
I'm goin' down to Emily's for last call
To hear what all the fishermen call
I was talkin' to Rubalee just the other day
She said some boys tried to steal my crab trap away
Even got no room to grow my oyster bed
Since them local boys cut a deal with the feds
Now it just don't seem right to Mary Jane and me
How someone can own a piece of the sea
Beaufort-by-the-Sea
Such a crown jewel in your duality
Forty acres and a mule
One day you know we'll all be free
I'm goin' down to Emily's for last call
To hear what all
I'm goin' down to Emily's for last call
To hear what all the fishermen call
To hear what all the fishermen call
To hear what all the fishermen call
