Lyrics
DOWN IN THE FLORIDA KEYS
I come down here to get away for a while; to this island paradise,
Easy livin' and pretty women, It’s a tropical delight.
I can sail away and at the end of the day, go out and party all night
Down in the Florida Keys, You can be who you want to be,
No shirt, no shoes, no phone, You just might forget to go home.
Morning comes early and before it’s noon
I'll drink a margarita while strummin’ a tune,
Sittin’ here watching the ships roll in.
Working on a tall, cool, tonic and gin.
I think I’ll go on over to Louie’s, and watch the sun go down
Down in the Florida Keys, You can be who you want to be,
No shirt, no shoes, no phone, You just might forget to go home.
There’ll be dancin’ in the street, by midnight,
To a mystical island beat, under the moonlight,
And you might catch the keys disease, sippin’ on a Bahama Breeze,
Down in the Florida Keys
Stay in Key Largo, like Bogart & Becall,
Down in Islamorada, You will have a ball,
Key West will be jumpin’, everyone will be around,
It’s like a great big party, so come on down,
You can fly out of here tomorrow,
Tonight you’ll be flyin’ with Jose Cuervo.
Down in the Florida Keys, You can be who you want to be,
No shirt, no shoes, no phone, You just might forget to go home.
