Last Mango In Paris |
I went down to Captain Tony’s |
To get out of the heat |
Then I heard a voice call out to me |
«Son come have a seat» |
I had to search my memory |
As I looked into those eyes |
Our lives change like the weather |
But a legend never dies |
He said I ate the last mango in Paris |
Took the last plane out of Saigon |
Took the first fast boat to China |
And Jimmy there’s still so much to be done |
I had a third world girl in Buzios |
With a pistol in each hand |
She always kept me covered |
As we moved from land to land |
I had a damn good run on Wall Street |
With my high fashion model wife |
I woke up dry beneath the African sky |
Just me and my Swiss Army knife |
I ate the last mango in Paris |
Took the last plane out of Saigon |
Took the first fast boat to China |
And Jimmy there’s still so much to be done |
We shot the breeze for hours |
As the sun fell from the sky |
And like the sun he disappeared |
Before my very eyes |
It was somewhere past dark-thirty |
And I went back to the head |
I read upon the dingy wall |
The words the old man said: |
I ate the last mango in Paris |
Took the last plane out of Saigon |
Took the first fast boat to China |
And Jimmy there’s still so much to be done |
I ate the last mango in Paris |
Took the last plane out of Saigon |
Took the first fast boat to China |
And Jimmy there’s still so much to be done |
That’s why we wander and follow La Vie Dansante |
