*This song is at least somewhat autobiographical. Jimmy Buffett was in fact born and raised in Pascagoula, Mississippi, and did go on a road trip with his uncle from there.

VERSE 1:
Billy pulled in in a jaguar - red convertible sixty-five
Headed home to Mississippi, he'd been around the world
that black sheep uncle of mine

His ship had come in, he was lookin to sin - singin - his own song
When he yelled from the drive, my heart came alive
"Jimmy boy come along"

CHORUS:
It's time to see the world - it's time to kiss a girl
it's time to cross the wild - meridian
Grab your bag and take a chance - time to learn a cajun dance
kid your gonna - see - the mornin sun ―
On the Pascagoula* run - - the Pascagoula run

VERSE 2:
Friday night at the stateline bar
where the waterfront people dwell
I better watch my step, if the floor caves in
I'll go right straight to hell

There were pinball machines and cajun queens
men with knives and scars
Billy moved 'cross the floor through the real hard core
and said "Here's where it gets bizarre"

[REPEAT CHORUS]

BRIDGE:
What do the ladies say, what do the ladies say
What do the ladies say, what do the ladies say
What do the ladies say, what do the ladies say
What do the ladies say, what do the ladies say

Bring that young man over here - we gonna buy that boy a beer
And that ain't all we wanna do - bring your crazy uncle too

[REPEAT CHORUS]
