Jamaica Mistaica |
Some folks say that Ive got the perfect life. |
Three swell kids, lots of toys and a lovely wife. |
I fly. |
I sail. |
I throw caution to the wind. |
Drift like a stratus cloud above the caribbean. |
But every now and then |
The dragons come to call. |
Just when you least expect it youll be dodging cannon balls. |
Ive seen to much not to stay in touch with a world full of love and luck. |
Ive got a big suspicion bout ammunition. |
I never forget to duck. |
Come back |
Come back |
Back to jamaica |
Dont you know we made a big mistaica |
Wed be so sad if you told us goodbye |
And we promise not to shoot you out of the sky |
It was a beautiful day |
The kind you want to toast |
We were treetop flyin |
Movin west along the coast |
Then we landed in the water |
Just about my favorite thrill |
When some asshole started firin |
When we taxied to negril |
Just about to lose my temper |
As I endeavored to explain |
We had only come for chicken |
We were not a ganja plane |
Well you should have seen there faces |
When they finally realized |
We were not some coked up cowboys |
Sportin guns and alibies |
Come back |
Come back |
Back to jamaica |
Dont you know we made a big mistaica |
Wed be so sad if you told us goodbye |
And we promise not to shoot you out of the sky |
They shot from the lighthouse |
They shot from the highway |
They shot from the top of the cliff |
Theyd all gone haywire |
Were catchin fire |
And there wasnt even a spliff |
Well the word got out |
All over the island |
Friends, strangers, they were all apologizin |
Some thought me crazy for bein way to nice |
But its just another shitty day in paradise |
Come back |
Come back |
Back to jamaica |
Dont you know we made a big mistaica |
Wed be so sad if you told us goodbye |
And we promise not to shoot you out of the sky |
Come back |
Come back |
Back to jamaica |
Dont you know we made a big mistaica |
Wed be so sad if you told us goodbye |
And we promise not to shoot you, promise not to shoot you, |
Promise not to shoot you out of the sky |
