Best Answer

"they call Alabama the Crimson Tide,call me Deacon Blue" is a line of verse from a song by Steely Dan. Sports teams from Univ .of Alabama are called the Crimson Tide because of their school colors. I think Deacon Blue is a fictitious 'nickname' of the kind used by underworld characters etc Deacon is a post in a church and using the title this way is similar to 'reverend' or 'doctor' or 'Colonel' in slang speech
