Gone Bamboo
THIS COLD COLD LIFE IS GETTING COLDER
IVE GOT TO GO WHERE BLUE MEETS BLUE
I CANT GET YOU OUT OF MY HEAD
ID RATHER BE GETTING SOME SAND IN MY SHOES
THERES A REMEDY FOR WHAT IM FEELING
A FEELING THAT IVE GOT TO OBEY
(I'LL) SIMPLY APPLY DARK RUM AND SALT WATER
ONE OF THE TWO WILL WASH YOUR MEMORY AWAY
CHORUS
WHAT DO YOU CALL IT? (GONE BAMBOO!)
WHAT DO YOU KNOW IVE (GONE BAMBOO!)
IM NEVER COMIN BACK CAUSE IVE (GONE BAMBOO!)
DONT CALL ME CAUSE IVE (GONE BAMBOO!)
I WONT GO BACK TO MY OLD LIFE IN THE CITY
IVE GOT A NEW LIFE WITH AN OCEAN VIEW
I WENT LOOKING FOR A TALL MOJITO
(TURNS OUT)( I WAS JUST) (TRYING TO LOSE )YOU
IM FEELING BETTER WITH EVERY MOMENT
WITH EVERY BREEZE AND EVERY CRASH OF THE SEA
PUT MY STUFF IN AN OLD SAILBOAT
I DONT CARE IF IT DONT FLOAT
CHORUS
(MIDDLE EIGHT)
AY-OH! I'VE GOT TO GET AWAY
AY-OH! GIVE ME
