Lyrics
Friday morning it feels like night, alarm clock wakes me before the light These cold winter mornings it’s hard to get outta bed I’m dreamin’ of a sunny place where I can clear my head It’s the end of the week; I’m tired I’m beat. I can’t wait to get off my feet At times like these I just need a little sunshine Way down in the Keys with a drink and a twist of lime CHORUS So I’m down here on the beach with my feet in the sand An Island cutie on my lap, a Corona in my hand I’m chillin’ like a villain in this Jimmy Buffett state of mind I turn the radio on and I’ve got no cares And the smell of fresh coconut fills the air Ain’t it funny how your work and worries can stop on a dime? Yeah, I’ll take my life to go with a twist of lime Last night I played in some Nashville bar, the owner asked, “What’s with that rockin’ guitar? In here the folks like to hear the old Hank Sr. clones… Songs by Waylon, Willie, Merle, and George Jones!” I said I’ve always liked, A Boy Named Sue, along with Kenny, Keith and George Strait too. But crank up some ol’ Bon Jovi anytime Cause I like my country to rock with a twist of lime CHORUS Yeah I like my music in an edgy Like the dual guitars that the Eagles play I like the sweet soft southern sound of a steel guitar I like the bass drum to put a hole in your soul Sometimes a little more rock, just a tad less roll I like my Garth, Poison, Buffett with a little bit of Patsy Cline Yeah I like my country rockin’ with a twist of lime Show ‘em what I’m talking about now… SOLO CHORUS Now I’m back here on the beach with my feet in the sand An Island cutie on my lap, a Corona in my hand I’m chillin’ like a villain in this Jimmy Buffett state of mind There’s a tropical beat coming from the pier And the smell of boiling lobsters fills the air Ain’t it funny how your work and worries can stop on a dime? Yeah, I’ll take my life straight up with a twist of lime I’m having the time of my life with a twist of lime.
