Lyrics
Barometer Soup Jimmy
Buffett, Russ Kunkel, Jay Oliver, Roger Guth, and Peter Mayer
Chorus
FOLLOW IN MY WAKE, YOU'VE NOT THAT MUCH AT STAKE
FOR I HAVE PLOWED THE SEAS, AND SMOOTHED THE TROUBLED WATERS
COME ALONG LET'S HAVE SOME FUN, THE HARD WORK HAS BEEN DONE
WI'LL BARREL ROLL INTO THE SUN, JUST FOR STARTERS
Verse
JUST FOR STARTERS, BAROMETER IS MY SOUP
I'M DESCENDED FROM A DECK HAND ON A SLOOP
I TRAVEL ON THE SONG LINES THAT ONLY DREAMERS SEE
NOT KNOWN FOR PREDICTABILITY
Chorus
COME AND FOLLOW IN OUR WAKE, YOU'VE NOT THAT MUCH AT STAKE
FOR WE HAVE PLOWED THE SEAS, AND SMOOTHED THE TROUBLED WATERS
COME ALONG LET'S HAVE SOME FUN, SEEMS OUR WORK IS DONE
WE'LL BARREL ROLL INTO THE SUN, JUST FOR STARTERS
Verse
SAIL THE MAIN COURSE, SAIL IT IN A SIMPLE STURDY CRAFT
KEEP HER WELL STOCKED WITH SHORT STORIES AND LONG LAUGHS
GO FAST ENOUGH TO GET THERE, BUT SLOW ENOUGH TO SEE
MODERATION SEEMS TO BE THE KEY
Bridge
CONSTANTLY SEARCHING
OH MY EYES HAVE SEEN SOME HORIZONS
AND I'VE CROSSED THE OCEANS
FOR MORE THAN JUST THRILLS
NO I'M NOT THE FIRST
WON'T BE THE LAST
YOU LUST FOR THE FUTURE
BUT TREASURE THE PAST
Chorus
FOLLOW IN MY WAKE, YOU'VE NOT THAT MUCH AT STAKE
FOR I HAVE PLOWED THE SEAS, AND SMOOTHED THE TOUBLED WATERS
COME ALONG LET'S HAVE SOME FUN, THE HARD WORK HAS BEEN DONE
WE'LL BARREL ROLL INTO THE SUN, JUST FOR STARTERS
WE'LL BARREL ROLL INTO THE SUN, JUST FOR STARTERS
WE'LL BARREL ROLL INTO THE SUN, JUST FOR STARTERS
Barefoot Children In The Rain
Jimmy Buffett, Russ Kunkel, Jay Oliver, Roger Guth, and Peter Mayer
SCRATCH MY BACK WITH A LIGHTNING BOLT
THUNDER ROLLS LIKE A BASS DRUM NOTE
THE SOUND OF THE WEATHER IS HEAVEN'S RAG TIME BAND
WE ALL FELL DOWN FORM THE MILKY WAY
HANGING' ROUND HERE 'TILL JUDGMENT DAY
HEAVEN ONLY KNOWS WHO'S IN COMMAND
Chorus
BAREFOOT CHILDREN IN THE RAIN
GOT NO NEED TO EXPLAIN
WE'D BE SWINGING ON A BALL AND CHAIN
IT'S ALWAYS UNDERSTOOD BY THOSE WHO PLAY THE GAME
BAREFOOT CHILDREN IN THE RAIN
SHOW ME YOURS AND I'LL SHOW YOU MINE
TAKE ME BACK TO DAYS FULL WITH MONKEY SHINE'S
BOUNCING ON A BUBBLE FULL OF TROUBLE IN THE SUMMER SUN
KEEP YOUR RAFT FROM THE RIVERBOAT
FICTION OVER FACT ALWAYS HAS MY VOTE
AND WRINKLES ONLY GO SHERE THE SMILES HAVE BEEN
Chorus
BAREFOOT CHILDREN IN THE RAIN
GOT NO NEED TO EXPLAIN
WE'D BE SWINGING ON A BALL AND CHAIN
IT'S ALWAYS UNDERSTOOD BY THOSE WHO PLAY THE GAME
BAREFOOT CHILDREN IN THE RAIN
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
BAREFOOT CHILDREN IN THE RAIN
SCRATCH MY BACK WITH A LIGHTNING BOLT
THUNDER ROLLS LIKE A BASS DRUM NOTE
THE SOUND OF THE WEATHER IS HEAVEN'S RAG TIME BAND
THE SKY TURNS BLUE AND THE SUN APPEARS
BUT THE QUESTION'S STILL "WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE?"
I DON'T THINK THE ANSWER'S CLOSE AT HAND
Chorus
BAREFOOT CHILDREN IN THE RAIN
GOT NO NEED TO EXPLAIN
WE'D BE SWINGING ON A BALL AND CHAIN
IT'S ALWAYS UNDERSTOOD BY THOSE WHO PLAY THE GAME
BAREFOOT CHILDREN IN THE RAIN
IN THE RAIN
IN THE RAIN
Bank Of Bad Habits Jimmy Buffett,
Russ Kunkel, Jay Oliver, Roger Guth, and Peter Mayer
THE RUMORS AND THE STORIES OF MY PAST I CAN'T DENY
I'M NO ST. IGNATIUS BUT AGAIN I'M NO BAR FLY
THE WRONG THING IS THE RIGHT THING UNTIL YOU LOSE CONTROL
I GOT THIS BANK OF BAD HABITS IN A CORNER OF MY SOUL
Chorus
BANK OF BAD HABITS
THE PRICE OF VICE FORETOLD
ONE BY ONE THEY'LL DO YOU IN
THEY'RE BOUND TO TAKE THEIR TOLL
THE WRONG THING IS THE RIGHT THING
UNTIL YOU LOSE CONTROL
I GOT THIS BANK OF BAD HABITS
IN A CORNER OF MY SOUL
Verse 2
LAST NIGHT I SAID GOOD BYE TO A DEAR OLD FRIEND OF MINE
JUST A THROWBACK SHELL BEACH PARTY NOTHING REALLY ASININE
RUM AND COOKED ANIMALS AND BULLSHIT BY THE TON
THAT PARTY LASTED WAY TOO LONG AND I HAD TOO MUCH FUN
Chorus
BANK OF BAD HABITS
THE PRICE OF VICE FORETOLD
ONE BY ONE THEY'LL DO YOU IN
THEY'RE BOUND TO TAKE THEIR TOLL
THE WRONG THING IS THE RIGHT THING
UNTIL YOU LOSE CONTROL
I GOT THIS BANK OF BAD HABITS
IN A CORNER OF MY SOUL
THAT BANK OF BAD HABITS
IT'S WORTH IT'S WEIGHT IN GOLD
Bridge
TIME FOR YOU TO SPEND THAT DOUGH

Verse
A PICTURE'S WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS JUST ASK A CAMERA MAN
AND IT'S NO SIN TO STOP AND LOOK I DO IT WHEN I CAN
BUT YOU HAVE TO PURGE THAT URGE TO MERGE
YOU HAVE TO KEEP YOUR HEAD
TROUBLE IS WHAT YOU WILL FIND INSIDE SOME STRANGER'S BED
Chorus
BANK OF BAD HABITS
THE PRICE OF VICE FORETOLD

YEA WE'RE TALKIN

YOU KNOW I WAS WONDERING
DO YOU THINK THEY HAVE AN ATM
MACHINE FOR BAD HABITS?
I THINK I'LL APPLY FOR THAT CARD
Remittance Man Jimmy Buffett, Russ
Kunkel, Jay Oliver, Roger Guth, and Peter Mayer
SINNER ON THE MAINLAND
HE'S A SINNER ON THE SEA
HE LOOKS FOR ABSOLUTION
NOT ACCOUNTABILITY
HOW MANY DESTINATIONS
OH GOD HE'S SEEN THEM ALL
HE COLLECTS HIS PRECIOUS PITTANCE
IN EVERY PORT OF CALL
Chorus
REMITTANCE MAN
BLACK SHEEP OF THE FAMILY CLAN
BROKE TOO MANY RULES ALONG THE WAY
REMITTANCE MAN
SO FAR AWAY FROM HOME
NO THEY'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND THE REMITTANCE MAN
Verse
A MAN OF EMPTY POCKETS
FROM JINGLING HIS CHANGE
THE IDLENESS AND GRIEVING
ARE ALL THAT HE RETAINS
BY THE HARBOR LIGHTS OF SIDNEY
OR THE BORA BORA MOON
HE RECITES HIS SAD CONFESSION
TO THE SEAGULLS AND THE LOONS
Chorus
REMITTANCE MAN
BLACK SHEEP OF THE FAMILY CLAN
BROKE TOO MANY RULES ALONG THE WAY
REMITTANCE MAN
SO FAR AWAY FROM HOME
NO THEY'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND THE REMITTANCE MAN
Bridge
YOU COULD CLAIM THAT YOU WERE BORN A PRINCE
BUT YOUR THE ONLY ONE YOU CAN CONVINCE
SURVIVOR WITH NO LIVELIHOOD, THAT YOU COULD EVER MAKE IT GOOD
BUT STILL YOU DREAM OF WHAT YOU CAN'T PRETEND
Verse
AN UNEXPECTED PASSENGER
BOARDED IN MARSEILLES
AN ANGEL FULL OF TENDERNESS
SHE GAVE HER HEART AWAY
SHE WAS BUT A GYPSY
HE WAS JUST A STRAY
THEY ALMOST MADE A MIRACLE
BUT IT SLOWLY SLIPPED AWAY
SO HE FOLLOWS THE EQUATOR
WITH A WISH TO RUN AGROUND
IT'S A VERY VICIOUS CIRCLE
GOING ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND
NOW HE WATCHES FROM THE FANTAIL
AS THE MAINLAND DISAPPEARS
JUST LIKE THE FLYING DUTCH MAN
HE'S A PRISONER OF HIS FEARS
Chorus
REMITTANCE MAN
BLACK SHEEP OF THE FAMILY CLAN
BROKE TOO MANY RULES ALONG THE WAY
REMITTANCE MAN
SO FAR AWAY FROM HOME
NO THEY'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND
NO THEY'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND
NO THEY'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND
Diamond As Big As The Ritz Jimmy
Buffett, Russ Kunkel, Jay Oliver, Roger Guth, and Peter Mayer
Verse
HIDDEN IN THE MOUNTAINS
UNDER THE EARTH AND STONE
A CUBIC MILE OF PERFECTION
A TREASURE NO ONE HAS KNOWN
ONE MAN CAME UPON THIS MOTHERLOAD
BUILT HIMSELF A THOUSNAD ROOM CHATEAU
Verse
HE'S THE EMPEROR OF DIAMONDS
MASTER OF THE PRIZE
HE'S GOT A HOLD ON HAPPINESS
AND ALL THAT MONEY CAN BUY
EVERYDAY HE LIVES IN FASCINATION
THIS IS NOT AN EVERYDAY TEMPTATION
Chorus
IT WAS A DIAMOND AS BIG AS THE RITZ
WHAT YOU GONNA DO WITH THIS, TELL ME
WHO'S GONNA SAVE YOU WHEN YOUR A SLAVE TO
THE DIAMOND AS BIG AS THE RITZ
Verse
A BLESSING CAN BECOME A CURSE
IF YOU KEEP IT TO YOURSELF
YOUR OWN EXAGGERATION
IS NOT SO GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH
IT'S THE PROPHECY OF THE UNATTAINABLE DREAM
IF YOU TAKE ONE LOOK BEHIND THE SHINE
IT DOESN'T ALWAYS GLEAM
EVERYDAY HE LIVES IN FASCINATION
THIS IS NOT AN EVERYDAY TEMPTATION
Chorus
IT WAY A DIAMOND AS BIG AS THE RITZ
WHAT YOU GONNA DO WITH THIS
WHO'S GONNA SAVE YOU WHEN YOUR A SLAVE TO
THE DIAMOND AS BIG AS THE RITZ
COAL UNDER PRESSURE
SPARKLE OF TREASURE
CRYSTALLINE MEASURE
ORNAMENTAL PLEASURE
IN THE CORNER OF YOUR EYE
MAKE A GROWN MAN CRY
ALL THE SEEDS YOU'VE SOWN
Verse
GREED CAN CRUMBLE CASTLE WALLS
GREED CAN PURCHASE YOU THRILLS
POWER IS A DANGEROUS THING
IT CAN MAIM IT CAN KILL
IT'S THE PROPHECY OF THE UNATTAINABLE DREAM
IF YOU TAKE ONE LOOK BEHIND THE SHINE
IT DOESN'T ALWAYS GLEAM
Chorus
IT WAS A DIAMOND AS BIG AS THE RITZ
WHAT YOU GONNA DO WITH THIS
WHO'S GONNA SAVE YOU WHEN YOUR A SLAVE TO
THE DIAMOND AS BIG AS THE RITZ
Chorus
IT WAS A DIAMOND AS BIG AS THE RITZ
WHAT YOU GONNA DO WITH THIS, TELL ME
WHO'S GONNA SAVE YOU WHEN YOU'RE A SLAVE TO
THE DIAMOND AS BIG AS THE RITZ
Blue Heaven Rendezvous
Jimmy Buffett, Russ Kunkel, Jay Oliver, Roger Guth, and Peter Mayer
Verse
BLUE LIGHT GUITARS
AND TROPICAL BREEZE
HUMMINGBIRDS MIME THE WORDS
AS THEY DANCE IN THE TREES
IT'S A FLASHBACK KIND OF CROWD
IT'S A CABARET SOUND
THERE'S STILL SOME MAGIC LEFT
IN THIS TOURIST TOWN
Chorus
THOSE CRAZY DAYS AND CRAZY WAYS
WE NEVER WANT TO UN-DO
WE'LL BE TOGETHER NOW AND FOREVER
AT THE BLUE HEAVEN RENDEZVOUS
Verse
WE WERE WEIRD ROMAN CANDLES
BURNING BRIGHT AT BOTH ENDS
AT THE END OF THE ROAD
IS WHERE THIS STORY BEGINS
WHERE THE GREEN OF THE GULF
MEETS THE BLUE OF THE SEA
WHAT MAKES IT ALL HAPPEN
STILL A MYSTERY TO ME
Chorus
THOSE CRAZY DAYS AND CRAZY WAYS
WE NEVER WANT TO UN-DO
WE'LL BE TOGETHER NOW AND FOREVER
AT THE BLUE HEAVEN RENDEZVOUS
Bridge
IF THESE WALLS COULD TALK
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'D SAY
THEY'VE SEEN SOME ACCIDENTAL MASQUERADES
BUT IT'S NO SURPRISE
DANCES TILL DAWN, HEROES LONG GONE
JUST LET THAT GUITAR PLAY
Chorus
THOSE CRAZY DAYS AND CRAZY WAYS
WE NEVER WANT TO UN-DO
WE'LL BE TOGETHER NOW AND FOREVER
AT THE BLUE HEAVEN RENDEZVOUS
WE'LL BE TOGETHER NOW AND FOREVER
AT THE BLUE BLUE HEAVEN RENDEZVOUS
Jimmy Dreams Jimmy
Buffett
Verse
JIMMY DREAMS HE'S A CHILD TILL THE END
WHAT A JOY WHEN YOU ARE YOUR BEST FRIEND
THE WORLD'S SUCH A TOY
IF YOU'LL JUST STAY A BOY
YOU CAN SPIN IT AGAIN AND AGAIN
JIMMY FLIES WITH NO USE FOR DISGUISE
JUST ESCAPES USING MIRRORS AND CAPES
AND THE WORDS DO THE TRICK
THERE IS NO BIGGER KICK
THAN JUST RHYMING AGAIN AND AGAIN
Bridge
IT'S THE SOUND OF THE LOW TIDE,
THE SMELL OF THE RAIN
TRAVELIN' ALONE
ON MY BOAT AND MY PLANE
TAKE IT ALL IN IT'S AS BIG AS IT SEEMS
COUNT ALL YOUR BLESSINGS
REMEMBER YOUR DREAMS
Verse
JIMMY STARES TOWARD THE BRIGHT PLEIADES
IT'S SO STRANGE
WHAT HIS DISTANT EYE SEES
WHO KNOW WHY YOU START
RE-DISCOVERING YOUR HEART
BUT YOU DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN
THE SOUND OF THE LOW TIDE,
THE SMELL OF THE RAIN
TRAVELIN' ALONE
ON MY BOAT AND MY PLANE
TAKE IT ALL IN IT'S AS BIG AS IT SEEMS
COUNT ALL YOUR BLESSINGS
REMEMBER YOUR DREAMS
Verse
JIMMY STARES TOWARD THE BRIGHT PLEIADES
IT'S SO STRANGE
WHAT HIS DISTANT EYE SEES
WHO KNOWS WHY YOU START
RE-DISCOVERING YOUR HEART
BUT YOU DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN
THE WORLDS STILL A TOY
IF YOU JUST STAY A BOY
AND THATS WHY JIMMY DREAMS
Lage Nom Ai Jimmy
Buffett, Russ Kunkel, Jay Oliver, Roger Guth, and Peter Mayer
Verse
NORDSTROM WAS A SIMPLE MAN
WHO HATCHED A NON-CONFORMIST PLAN TO SAVE HIS ASS
EVERY NIGHT HE DANCED ALONE
AND BLOTTED OUT THE MONOTONE THAT WAS HIS PAST
HE PACKS HIS BAG OF MYSTERIES
AND LEAVES THE LONELY MEMORIES WHERE THEY BELONG
THEY CAME AND WENT SO EASILY
THIS RISING TIDE IDENTITY, SINGS LIKE A SONG
Chorus
LAGE NOM AI-NOM AI
WHEN YOU KNOW THAT LIFE IS JUST A GAME
LAGE NOM AI-NOM AI
HE'S THE MAN WHO GAVE UP HIS OWN NAME
Verse
IN THE ROLL OF COSMIC DICE
YOU WIN ONE HEART AND LOSE IT TWICE, BEFORE YOU KNOW
LOVE IS FINE UNTIL YOU TASTE
THIS MELANCHOLY BOUILLABAISSE CALLED LETTING GO
Chorus
LAGE NOM AI-NOM AI
WHEN YOU KNOW THAT LIFE IS JUST A GAME
LAGE NOM AI-NOM AI
HE'S THE MAN WHO GAVE UP HIS OWN NAME
Verse
HE MOVED ON UP TO OLD BEAN TOWN
AND SUMMERED ON THE VINEYARD SOUND, TO PASS THE DAY
ISLAND HOPPING, CRAB CAY BOUND
TENDING BAR HE THINKS HE'S FOUND A BETTER WAY
NOW WERE BACK WHERE WE BELONG
WITHOUT A CLUE AND STILL WITHOUT A MASTER PLAN
INCIDENT OR ACCIDENT
IT ALL DEPENDS ON IF YOU'RE MEANT TO UNDERSTAND
Chorus
LAGE NOM AI-NOM AI
WHEN YOU KNOW THAT LIFE IS JUST A GAME
LAGE NOM AI-NOM AI
HE'S THE MAN WHO GAVE UP HIS OWN NAME
HE'S THE MAN WHO GAVE UP HIS OWN NAME
Don't Chu-Know Jimmy
Buffett, Russ Kunkel, Jay Oliver, Roger Guth, and Peter Mayer
YOU CAN SPEND ALL YOUR DAYS IN THE GRIND
CONVERTING YOUR NICKLES TO DIMES
YOU COULD STUFF ALL YOUR POCKETS TILL THEY OVERFLOW
DON'T CHU KNOW DON'T CHU KNOW DON'T CHU KNOW
YOU CAN SAY YOU'RE TOO OLD TO BE YOUNG
YOU THINK YOU'RE TOO SMART TO BE DUMB
BUT THE WELL SEASONED PRO KNOWS HOW LONG HE CAN GO
DON'T YOU KNOW DON'T CHU KNOW DON'T CHU KNOW
YOU CAN SING EVERY SONG THAT'S BEEN SUNG
CONQUER THE MOON AND THE SUN
BUT IF YOU ASKED ME IT'S ALL BOTH BEEN SAID AND BEEN DONE
WE'RE JUST RECYCLED HISTORY MACHINES
CAVEMEN IN FADED BLUE JEANS
IT'S THE UNANSWERED QUESTION IN EACH ONE OF US
DON'T CHU KNOW DON'T CHU KNOW DON'T CHU KNOW
Bridge
THE MORE WE LEARN THE LESS WE KNOW
WHAT YOU KEEP IS WHAT YOU CAN'T LET GO
TAKE IT FAST OR TAKE IT SLOW
JUST ONE WAY FOR YOU TO GO
DON'T CHU KNOW - LET'S GO NOW
YOU CAN SING EVERY SONG THAT'S BEEN SUNG
CONQUER THE MOON AND THE SUN
BUT IF YOU ASKED ME IT'S NOT IN THE RACE THAT YOU RUN
IT'S THE OUTCAST IN EACH ONE OF US
WHO GETS THE GIRL WHO IS TOO GLAMOROUS
THERE'S NO ONE TO DECEIVE, IT'S JUST ALL MAKE BELIEVE
DON'T CHU KNOW DON'T CHU KNOW DON'T CHU KNOW
DON'T CHU KNOW DON'T CHU KNOW DON'T CHU KNOW
DON'T CHU KNOW DON'T CHU KNOW DON'T CHU KNOW
The Ballad Of Skip Wiley
Jimmy Buffett, Russ Kunkel, Jay Oliver, Roger Guth, and Peter Mayer
HE'S A MAN ON A MISSION
WILD AS A RICOCHET
PICTURE IF YOU CAN
WHEN THE EVERGLADES RAN
FROM THE GULF COAST TO BISCAYNE BAY
HE'S GONNA GIVE IT BACK TO THE GATORS
LOCK THE TOURISTS UP IN THEME PARKS AND ZOOS
HE SAYS "JOIN ME FOR LUNCH AT THE REPTILES BRUNCH
WHERE THE BAROMETER SOUP IS YOU"
HE'S CRAZY AND DANGEROUS
BUT WHO ELSE CAN YOU TRUST
HE'S THE OUTLAW IN ALL OF US
THE ENVIRONMENTAL TERRORIST
Chorus
YOU CAN MESS WITH THE MOUSE IN ORLANDO
JILT A TOURIST IN ST. AUGUSTINE
YOU CAN SHOPLIFT ALL DAY AT BLOCKBUSTER
BUT YOU CAN'T STEAL THE ORANGE BOWL QUEEN
NO YOU CAN'T STEAL THE ORANGE BOWL QUEEN
Verse
THERE WERE CRIMES OF EPIC PROPORTIONS
ALL PART OF SKIP WILEY'S CRUSADE
TOURISTS WERE CACKIN' AND TOURISTS WERE PACKIN'
WHILE HE AND SKINK COOLED THEIR HEELS IN THE SHADE
THEN CAME THE CITRUS SENSATION
"WELCOME TO THE REVOLUTION" HE SAID
WITH A PIRATE'S PERSONA HE SNATCHED THE GRIDIRON MADONNA
AND THE BIG MOVERS CALLED FOR HIS HEAD
HE'S CRAZY AND DANGEROUS
BUT WHO ELSE CAN YOU TRUST
HE'S THE OUTLAW IN ALL OF US
THE ENVIRONMENTAL TERRORIST
Chorus
YOU CAN MESS WITH THE MOUSE IN ORLANDO
JILT A TOURIST IN ST. AUGUSTINE
YOU CAN RAG ON THE MIAMI DOLPHINS
BUT YOU CAN'T STEAL THE ORANGE BOWL QUEEN
NO YOU CAN'T STEAL THE ORANGE BOWL QUEEN
NO YOU CAN'T STEAL THE ORANGE BOWL QUEEN
WILL SKIP'S CAPER IT KIND OF BACKFIRED
AND GOT THE ORANGE JUICE BARONS RATHER UPSET
IN THE LIGHT OF BAD MOODS, THESE MANHUNTS ENSUED
BUT SKIP EASILY SLIPPED THROUGH THE NET
HE WAS LAST SEEN A TOP OF A MANGROVE
PERCHED LIKE A WOUNDED OSPREY
HE WAS NOT MEANT TO LAST, HE BELONGS TO THE PAST
AND I HOPE HE GETS THERE ONE DAY
HE'S CRAZY AND DANGEROUS
BUT WHO ELSE CAN YOU TRUST
HE'S THE OUTLAW IN ALL OF US
THE ENVIRONMENTAL TERRORIST
Chorus
YOU CAN MESS WITH THE MOUSE IN ORLANDO
JILT A TOURIST IN ST. AUGUSTINE
YOU CAN SHOPLIFT YOUR DAYS AT BLOCKBUSTER
BUT YOU CAN'T STEAL THE ORANGE BOWL QUEEN
NO YOU CAN'T STEAL THE ORANGE BOWL QUEEN
NO YOU CAN'T STEAL THE ORANGE BOWL QUEEN
The Night I Painted The
Sky Jimmy Buffett, Russ Kunkel, Jay Oliver, Roger Guth, and Peter Mayer
Verse
I CAME FROM THE NORTH ESCAPING CONVENTION
THE MODERN INVENTION THATWON'T LET ME BE
TO THE SHORES OF ST. MAARTEN WITH MY FICTION ADDICTION
TO RESTART THE FIRE A DREAMER'S REMEDY
Verse
INDEPENDENCE DAY AND ALL I REMEMBER
WAS A MIDNIGHT RAINBOW THAT FELL FROM THE SKY
AS I STAND ON THE BEACH I SLOWLY SURRENDER
TO THE CHILD IN ME WHO CAN'T SAY GOOD-BYE
Chorus
THE ROCKETS IN THE AIR
AND THE PEOPLE EVERYWHERE
PUT AWAY THEIR DIFFERENCES FOR AWHILE
OH I AM STILL A CHILD WHEN IT COMES TO SOMETHING WILD
THAT WAS THE NIGHT I PAINTED THE SKY
Verse
I DUG IN THE SAND LIKE A BOY, ON A MISSION
AND THERE IN MY HANDS A PYRO'S DELIGHT
A BOMBADIER, A NIGHTTIME MAGICIAN
I SPARK THE SKY AS THE ROCKETS FLY FROM VIEW
Chorus
THE ROCKETS IN THE AIR
AND THE PEOPLE EVERYWHERE
PUT AWAY THEIR DIFFERENCES FOR AWHILE
I AM STILL A CHILD WHEN IT COMES TO SOMETHING WILD
THAT WAS THE NIGHT I PAINTED THE SKY
Verse
OH THE MORTARS THEY ROAR IN ANTICIPATION
PRECEDING THE SIGH OF THE UPLIFTED EYES
IT SHOWERS US ALL IN SULFURIC SENSATION
THE COLORS SHINE IN A FIERY RHYME TONIGHT
Chorus
THE ROCKETS IN THE AIR
AND THE PEOPLE EVERYWHERE
PUT AWAY THEIR DIFFERENCES FOR AWHILE
I AM BUT A CHILD WHEN IT COMES TO SOMETHING WILD
OH THAT WAS THE NIGHT
THAT WAS THE NIGHT
OH THAT WAS THE NIGHT I PAINTED THE SKY
PAINTED THE SKY
PAINTED THE SKY
Mexico James Taylor
Verse
WAY DOWN HERE
YOU NEED A REASON TO MOVE
FEEL A FOOL
RUNNIN' YOUR STATE SIDE GAME

THE SUN'S SO HOT
I FORGOT TO GO HOME
GUESS I'LL HAVE TO GO NOW
Verse
AMERICANO'S GOT THE SLEEPY EYES
BUT HIS BODY'S STILL SHAKEN LIKE A LIVE WIRE

THE MOONS SO BRIGHT
LIKE TO LIGHT UP THE LIGHT
MAKE EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT
Verse
BABYS HUNGRY
AND THE MONEY'S ALL GONE
THE FOLKS BACK HOME
DON'T WANT TO TALK ON THE PHONE
SHE GETS A LONG LETTER
SENDS BACK A POST CARD
TIMES ARE HARD

OH DOWN IN MEXICO
I NEVER REALLY BEEN
SO I DON'T REALLY KNOW
OOOOHHHHHH MEXICO
I GUESS I'LL HAVE TO GO NOW
OOOOHHHHHH MEXICO
I'VE NEVER REALLY BEEN
BUT I'D SURE LIKE TO GO
WOOOOHHHHHH MEXICO
I GUESS I'LL HAVE TO GO NOW |
