There's a tattered looking sun set
Cause it's cloudy to the west
Barges are passing by me with all the pretty birds on the rest
I've seen better fishing days down on these coastal waters
There so dear to my heart there a salty Texas daughter
I've gotta go - gotta see where that wind blows
Out on those Intercoastal Waters
I've gotta go - gotta find my soul
Out on those Inter Coastal Waters
We've been chasing reds for days
Till I forget just where I'm at
With the salt breeze on my face and the sun there on my back
Every cast I make a wish Every wave it makes its sound
Like a thousand washed out souls waiting to be unbound
I've gotta go - gotta see where that wind blows
Out on those Intercoastal Waters
I've gotta go - gotta fill up my soul
Out on those Intercoastal Waters
I'm staring down a nine mile horizon
With the morning coming on fast
Got that strong black coffee and the good smoke never lasts
We'll be wetting lines by dawn time Chasing down them bull reds
With some joy up in our hearts and no worries in our heads
I've gotta go - gotta see where that wind blows
Out on those Intercoastal Waters
I've gotta go - gotta fill my soul
Out on those Intercoastal Waters
Gotta run - cause I'm all but done
And Lord I need those Intercoastal Waters
Yeah I need those Intercoastal Waters
