It's the last fair deal gone down
It's the last fair deal gone down
It's the last fair deal gone down, good lord
On that Rockport Island road

My captain he treats me so mean
My captain he treats me so mean
My captain treats me so mean, good lord
On that Rockport Island road

Ida Belle don't you cry this time
Ida Belle don't you cry this time
Cry about a nickel
You're crying about a dime
Cry but the money wasn't mine

I love the way you do
I love the way you do
I love the way you do, good lord
On that Rockport Island road

It's the last fair deal gone down
It's the last fair deal gone down
It's the last fair deal gone down, good lord
On that Rockport Island road

I'm working my way back home
I'm working my way back home
I'm working my way back home, good lord
On that Rockport Island road

Ida Belle don't you cry this time
Ida Belle don't you cry this time
If you cry about a nickel
You'll die about a dime
Cry but the money wasn't mine

It's the last fair deal gone down
It's the last fair deal gone down
It's the last fair deal gone down, good lord
On that Rockport Island road
On that Rockport Island road
On that Rockport Island road
