作曲 : Roland Kent Lavoie

Out of work I took a job as a

Hand on a boat

In a town called Matlache

On my first day off I was

Sitting drinking beer

At a bar called the dock of the bay

When in walked a woman

That every man eyed

But her eyes stayed right on me

The guy next to me he

Whispered real low

There's more to her than you can see

She comes from the back bay

Better stay away

She lives up on the back bay

And then he moved on away

Well she came and sat down

And the hours flew by

And the beer flowed just like the tide

The sun went down and the moon came up

And there was fire in her eyes

She took me for a ride in the white moonlight

In a boat like I’ve never seen

As the bay flew by the sky was alive

I was seeing things that I've never seen

She said you're going to the back bay

You’re gonna see my ways

'Cause there's magic on the back bay

You might even want to stay

Well I woke in the morning to

Her house boat rocking

Eye to eye with an old brown hound

There was fresh mullet frying

And strange birds crying

And no one else for miles around

I saw her standing there with

The breeze in her hair

I knew I never wanted to leave

I saw all my things around I

Knew she'd been back into town

And already mad the move for me

She said you're moving to the back bay

You're gonna see my ways

You're gonna love it on the back bay

And you're always gonna stay
