"Durward" lyrics

Dang it Durwood
Don't take long
Don't long to get back home
Get off the boat and down on one knee
Get her a diamond ring

All aboard down at the docks 'bout time hit the rigs
Here come Durwood down in the dumps for the hole he's 'bout to dig
Two weeks off at you see you best believe she might be gone
Gone like this ole ship about to sail your standing on

Oh come on

Dang it Durwood
Don't take long
Don't long to get back home
Get off the boat and down on one knee
Get her a diamond ring

Damn it Durwood get off the boat get on to the bayou
I double down and double back and anchor down if eyes you
Mary Ruth I tell the truth was the pick off the pecan tree
Get on back to grand bay to the girl who's 'bout to leave

Oh come on

Dang it Durwood
Don't take long
Don't long to get back home
Get off the boat and down on one knee

Here's the truth that Mary Ruth ain't waiting very long
This old boat name jubilee don't make a happy home
Setting sail on second thought that loving's on the line
Hurry up she's running off you're running out of time

Oh come on

Dang it Durwood
Don't take long
Don't long to get back home
Get off the boat and down on one knee
Get her a diamond ring
