Caribbean Paradise
This something I wrote over the past two weeks. I'm obviously thinking of retirement and my wife (and I too) loves the Caribbean, so here is a little wishful thinking.
Mix comments welcome. Enjoy - Daryl
Caribbean Paradise http://www.soundclick.com/bands/page_songInfo.cfm?bandID=582907&songID=11783318 Caribbean Paradise
The sun rises on our little bungalow
There’s a sea breeze blowin’ through an open window
We leave our bed but take our time
The livin’s easy and were feelin’ fine
Eat our breakfast on the patio
Walk to the beach ‘cause it’s not far to go
We lay in the shade of an old palm tree
And watch the sails out on the sea
We’re drinkin’ pina coladas and it’s not yet noon
We’ll switch to shots of tequila soon
Margaritas with Jamaican rum
We dance to the sound of those steel drums
Chorus: Our friends up north in the ice and snow They all wish that they could go to our Caribbean Paradise The sun is hot but the water’s cool
The sea is bluer than a swimin’ pool
This Shangri-la were livin’ on
We all agree is No Problem Mon
Eatin’ conch fritters and key lime pie
Mango salsa on fish and fries
I’m so hungry I could eat a whale
Pass me another lobster tail
We lay on the sand and take a nap in the sun
It’s a lot of work havin’ so much fun
Don’t have a job. There’s nothing we gotta do
We aint got much but we sure gotta view
Chorus: We don’t read the paper or watch the news
We found ourselves and we lost the blues
Don’t wear a suit Don’t wear a tie
Don’t have a job but I’m a happy guy
The bands’ still playin’ as the sun sets low
We’ll stay out late ‘cause we’ve no place to go
Life is good on this spot of sand
Tomorrow we can do it all again
