Cowboy Boots and Bathing Suits

By Jerry Jeff Walker

G

We've been here a week or so

C

Now it's finally time to go

G D

Can't believe how quickly time has flown

G

Packin' up the bathin' suits

C

Getting’ out the cowboy boots

G D G

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

Chorus:

C

Early mornings on the long boat dock

G

Drinkin' coffee as the sun comes up

Am D G

Lazy days napping in the big deck chair

C

Late night dancing in the front street bar

G

Walking home underneath the stars

Am D G

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 heZe, 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:

Chorus

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 dancin' in a front street bar

Makin' 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, packin' up the bathin' suits

Gettin' out the cowboy boots, that's a sign we must be goin' home....
