Cowboy Boots And Bathing Suits

(альбом: Cowboy Boots & Bathing Suits - 1998)

We've been here a week or so
Now it's finally time to go
Can't believe how quickly time has flown

Packing up the bathing suits
Getting out the cowboy boots
That's a sign we must be going home

Time just stopped for a little while
We were part of a tiny island
Made a lot of friends we'll keep for life
When we get back home to Texas
And they ask us what we missed most
I'll shrug my shoulders, and I'll smile

Early mornings on the long boat dock
Drinking coffee as the sun comes up
Lazy days napping in the big deck chair
Late night dancing in the front street bar
Walking home underneath the stars
Man it's like some dream we live down here

Last night we ate conch and lobster
Mark said it was his favorite dinner
Maybe even the best one of his life
Dining underneath the stars
Chilean wine and Cuban cigars
I smiled at him and said you could be right

And he got real quiet, and he said you know
Hell I worked hard all my life
I made a lot of dough
I've been everywhere
I don't think it gets any better than down here
I mean the warmth and love of the people here
No crime, no hate, or fear
I don't think I'm ready for the world waiting for me back there

I need me just...

One more morning on the long boat dock
Drinking coffee as the sun comes up
Drinking bilikin beer in the big deck chair
Late night dancing in a front street bar
Making love under the stars
Man it's like some dream we live down here

Walking home underneath the stars
Hearing voices from that empty bar
Man it's like some dream we live done there

We've been here a week or so
Now it's finally time to go
Can't believe how quickly time as flown
Packing up the bathing suits
Getting out the cowboy boots
That's a sign we must be going home
