Present Company |
| Used to drive a pipeline |
| From here to Blind Man’s Bend |
| Tried and ride the main line |
| I went there with my friends |
| I like to be together |
| I like to be alone |
| Yes, and what I like best |
| Is I like it like this |
| And I stay with you at home |
| Enjoy the present company |
| Eat some grits and hominy |
| Couldn’t get much better for me |
| I enjoy your company… ooh… |
| Used to drive an ocean liner |
| Sunk in '52 |
| Off the coast of Indochina |
| Yes, I sunk there, too |
| Frost on the jewel glass windows here |
| Is ringing in the dawn, my dear |
| Spring is busting out of my ears |
| I wish that I was home |
| Enjoy the present company |
| Eat some grits and hominy |
| Couldn’t get much better for me |
| I enjoy the company… ooh… |
| You can wave a banner |
| I don’t mind if you do |
| I’m running back to Louisiana |
| I’m gonna drink that mountain dew |
| Used to be a loner |
| And I’d run the highway tolls |
| What I run now is I’m running anyhow |
| And I stay with you at home |
| So joy to the present company |
| Joy to the grits and hominy |
| And a joy to getting better for me |
| I enjoy the company… ooh… |
