Hidin' Downisland
Hey hey, hey hey, Hey hey, where ya goin' Jose?
Feeling quite frazzled on a cold winter's day The office was buzzin' with calls for Jose So I hopped on a jumbo bound St. Thomas way Took the 4 o'clock ferry to downtown Cruz Bay
Said Bern at the dock 'Whatcha doin, Jose? I didn't know you were plannin' on headin' our way' I replied, 'Bern, this world's just been too cruel to me I need clear turquoise waters and the smell of the sea'
So point me to windward and steer me to Skinny's Buy me a rum drink and I'll tell you my woes But don't tell them stateside I'm hidin' downisland There's too many people who just shouldn't know
It's a curse and a blessing I'll never forget The laptop, the cellphone, my old Palm Pilot (wrote this in '02) They leave me the freedom that I need to roam But the one thing that they never leave me is alone One half of me lives at the desk by the phone The other half daydreams of islands to roam Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com The pirate in me plans the fun and the thrills But the poor burned out lawyer's still payin' the bills
So point me to windward and steer me to Skinny's Buy me a rum drink and I'll tell you my woes But don't tell them stateside I'm hidin' downisland There's too many people who just shouldn't know
The moral my friends comes out so loud and clear Those things you hold precious, those dreams you hold dear Like beach bars and harbors you might once have haunted Be careful ol' chum you might get what you wanted…
So point me to windward and steer me to Skinny's Buy me a rum drink, I'll tell you my woes Just don't tell them stateside I'm hidin' downisland There's too many people who just shouldn't know
hey, where ya goin' Jose? hey, where ya goin' Jose? hey, where ya goin' Jose?
