[Verse 1]
Down the highway South I'll go
Wewahitchka to Port St. Joe
I'm gonna walk the beach with a pirate's ghost
We'll haunt that old forgotten coast

[Verse 2]
I'm gonna trade my car and change my name
Put Wesson Oil in my bar and chain
I'm gonna fix a road-kill black bear roast
And get fat on that forgotten coast

[Chorus 1]
No one's gonna find me there
With my steel guitar and my rockin' chair
Among the seafood shacks and oyster boats
I'll hide out on that forgotten coast

[Instrumental]

[Chorus 2]
No one's gonna find me there
With my fishin' pole and my rockin' chair
Tell the one I'll miss the most
"He's down on that forgotten coast"
[Verse 1]
Down the highway South I'll go
Wewahitchka to Port St. Joe
I'm gonna walk the beach with a pirate's ghost
We'll haunt that old forgotten coast

[Verse 3]
I'm gonna cut my hair and change my name
And when the Percodan won't touch the pain
Tell the one I'll miss the most
"He's gone down that forgotten coast"

[Outro]
Tell the one I'll miss the most
"He's down on that forgotten coast"
