PARADISE
(Verse 1)
Way up here in the ice and snow, lakes are frozen and I'm cold to the bone
Crank up the fire and grab my guitar, play my way to a southern star
Passin' time with all my friends, snow is looking like miles of sand
Fire up the blender that sounds so nice, welcome to my paradise
(Chorus)
No matter where you are, you can smile
Take a break from life for awhile
Find your heaven and grab you a slice
Make your own paradise
(Verse 2)
Hot as hell in these fields of corn, no sign of rain and my patience is worn
Well I'm a farmer and I love who I am, bustin' my butt, workin' this land
Fill up the pool and call up some friends
Corn rows lookin' like miles of sand
Grab the cooler with beer on ice, welcome to my paradise
(Repeat Chorus)
(Music Break)
(Verse 3)
Plenty of sunshine and big palm trees, I'm in the islands livin' the dream
Sing on the beaches to tourists all day, take a nap and then go out to play
Sun-tanned ladies and a warm island breeze, miles of sand to do what you please
Head to the tiki bar with cold drinks on ice, welcome to my paradise
(Repeat Chorus)
(Final Chorus)
No matter where you are, you can smile
Take a break from life for awhile
Come down and see me and I'll treat you real nice
Cuz this is my paradise
Grab your self a slice
And make your own paradise
A PIRATE LOVE STORY
(Verse 1)
Captain Crown and Ginger, they roamed the seas holding hands
They pillaged and plundered like lightning and thunder
The most feared couple off land
The captain he was a pirate, he loved his whiskey, his ship and his gold
But there was something missing, a woman to love him and hold
He searched across the oceans, in every ship and port he had known
But with a tired crew he knew just what to do, so they sailed into a Key they called Bone
(Chorus)
Captain Crown and Ginger, they roamed the seas holding hands
They pillaged and plundered like lightning and thunder
The most feared couple off land
(Verse 2)
It was there in Cayo Hueso, at a creaky ole' waterfront bar
He spotted her auburn hair flowing, as she slung drinks to those near and far
Now Ginger she was a beauty, and she could handle herself rather well
But she too was missing someone, who could get her out of this hell
Like two shy little children, they shared glances but never a word
Until he passed her a note asking her to his boat, now their legends of the pirate world
(Repeat Chorus 2x)
INTO THE BLUE
(Verse 1)
I know why, I'm feeling blue
Baby, it's because of you
It doesn't matter, how long you've been gone
I can still hear your voice in every song
(Verse 2)
Memories, come flooding back again
As I sail out, around the bend
We dropped anchor, over in that bay
We held each other close as the island music plaid
(Bridge 1)
Sunlight on the water, reminds me of your hair
Your smile so warm and bright, we never had a care
I'll remember, everything about you
As I sail out, into the blue
(Verse 3)
Reminders, everywhere I turn
That Lovers Cross, will forever burn
I wanna go where, I'm closest to you
So I'll sail out, into the blue
(Bridge 2)
Into the blue, that's where I'll find you
So I'll sail on through
We'll be together, now and forever
Out there, into the blue
(Verse 4)
My friends say, I need to move on
Get on with life, now that you are gone
They don't understand, why I do what I do
I keep sailing, into the blue
I wanna sail out, into the blud
I'm gonna sail out, and find you
(Musical Break)
(Outro)
Into the Blue
FREE TO BE ME
(Verse 1)
Sailing out into the bay, don't feel like doing a damn thing today
Cuz I'm free, free to be me
My lovely lady is by my side, gonna roll on the wind and the tide
Cuz I'm free, free to be me
(Chorus)
Free like the birds floating in the wind
Never goin' back to the real world again
Start a new life in the islands so it seems
Change my wardrobe to a lighter fare
Soak up the sun and the salty air
And head on down to the beaches that hold all my dreams
(Verse 2)
It's time to refill and reapply
it's really tough but I'm getting by
Oh I'm free, free to be me
I gotta run I hope you'll understand
Need to get my feet in that sand
Where I'm free, free to be me
(Repeat Chorus)
(Music Break)
(Verse 3)
I've done my time and I'm growin' old
Need some place warm that's never cold
Where I'm free, free to be me
Wake every day to the sun and sand
Walk the beach with you hand in hand
Where we're free, yeah where we're free
(Repeat Chorus)
Sailin' out into the bay, don't feel like doin' a damn thing today
SAIL AWAY WITH ME
(Verse 1)
I dream, of you all the time
Your lips remind me, of a fine Rose wine
And your eyes, as blue as the sea
You stole my heart, and you threw away the key
(Chorus)
Let's leave this world behind, and get lost in ourselves
Making memories of you and I, that fill up our shelves
Alone, no we'll never be
Come sail darlin', sail away with me
(Verse 2)
Through storms, we sail to the sun
You stole my heart and we'll always be one
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
We'll live each day as if it's our last
We'll live for the moment, but treasure our past
(Musical Break)
(Repeat Chorus, repeat last line 3x)
DEAR RICK
(Intro)
Dear Rick, why did you go?
You left our hearts with a mighty big hole
I wonder if you knew, we loved you so
And I know, you want us to be strong
Don't want to get down with a sad sad song
So I promise my friend I'm going to move this along
(Verse 1)
Once a year, dead of winter, you bust your ass for your friends
Clearing snow, clearing space, crank up the heat so the fun never ends
Party For The Hardy, true to it's name, ten below, snow or even rain
Dear Rick, this one's for you
(Verse 2)
Elevator ridin' with a stolen chair, your costumes were always cool
Beach-ball dodge ball with unsuspecting riders, after hours sneak into the pool
Turnin' heads with your urinal cup, walkin' from the bathroom just drinkin' it up
Dear Rick, this one's for you
(Chorus)
You're the devil on our shoulders, the angel by our side
You're there when we need you
Watching over us and dancing on the stars, never forget
"We flip burgers not cars"
We'll raise a glass to toast your white ass, pictures we have a few
Dear Rick, this one's for you
(Verse 3)
Speaking of burgers, one of your joys, cookin' for SOMA athletes
Cranking out minis on your George Foreman grill, late night convention hotel room treats
You always give and you never take, no one can call you fickle
"Hey Todd, wanna try my pickle?"
(Repeat Chorus)
(Musical (Break)
(Verse 4)
The love of your life, your best friend your wife, Mele and Bailey, they're all just fine
We got your back and they'll never lack, it's a hell of a Parrot Head support line
You made your mark, got scars on our heart, but your part of God's greater plan
He needs a guy like you to lead his Parrot Head clan
(Repeat Chorus, repeat last line 3x)
LOUIE'S BACKYARD
(Verse 1)
It's good to be back in Key West, escaping life for awhile
So much to do, so much to see, gives me that Cheshire Cat smile
But I need to slow down and decompress, pace the day into the night
One more stop, one more bar, will surely set things right
(Chorus)
Late at night, you will find me
Far away from Duval
Warm gentle breeze and soft-crashing waves
Takes you away from it all
Kickin' back with friends and a drink
Oh those stories of the day
Chillin' on the deck of Louie's Backyard
Where the world just melts away
(Verse 2)
Soft glow streams from the bar, music drifts on the wind
Conversations, fill the air, just how a perfect day ends
And that's why
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
Ten Speed had the notion, a drink every day by the ocean
Belly full of Kahlua and cream, lays on Dog Beach and dreams
(Verse 3)
The party is almost over, back to the real world I'll go
This Duval crawl must come to an end, there's one more stop so let's go
(Final Chorus)
Last night, and you will find me
Far away from Duval
Warm gentle breeze and soft-crashing waves
Takes you away from it all
Kickin' back with friends and a drink
Oh those stories of the day
Chillin' on the deck of Louie's Backyard
Where the world just melts away
Chillin' on the deck of Louie's Backyard
Where the world just melts away
