I'M LATE GETTIN' HOME, SHE SAYS I WORK NON-STOP
AN ISLAND CRUISE PAMPHLET, SITTIN' ON THE COUNTER TOP
WELL, THAT VACATION LOOKS GOOD, DIGGIN' THROUGH OUR EMPTY FRIDGE
SHE'S IN A HOT TUB BATH WITH A ROMANCE NOVEL
ME, I'LL PROBABLY GO TO BED WITH AN ASPIRIN BOTTLE
SHE YELLS HONEY, CAN YOU FIND THE, T.V., CHANNEL, CHANGING, THINGAMAJIG

*I SAID HEY, WHY DON'T WE SHIMMY, SHAKE, GO JAMAICAN MAN
DO THE CLAMBAKE IN THE CARIBBEAN SAND
UMBRELLAS ON ICE, WE COULD SPEND THE DAY WATCHIN' 'EM FLOAT
TIE UP LIFE'S TROUBLES MAKE 'EM WALK THE PLANK
DROP THE ANCHOR AT THE LOBSTER TANK
CANCUN REAL SOON, PATCHIN' HOLES IN OUR LOVE BOAT

HONEY, PACK THAT MINI-SKIRT YOU USED TO WEAR
SHE SAID, ARE YOU CRAZY, IT'S EXTINCT IN MY CLOSET SOMEWHERE
YA' BUT, YOU LOOK GREAT FOR YOUR AGE
SHE SAID, DON'T TELL ME WHAT THAT MEANS
WELL, TAKE A LOOK AT THE SPA IN THIS LITTLE BROCHURE
GENTLE BUT FIRM, NOW THAT SOUNDS LIKE THE PERFECT CURE
SHE SAID, I CAN GO FOR THAT, I GUARANTEE

**SO HEY, WHY DON'T WE SHIMMY, SHAKE, POUR JAMAICAN RUM
FEELIN' COCONUT AND TROPICAL WOULD SURE BE FUN
UMBRELLAS ON ICE, WE COULD SPEND THE DAY WATCHIN' 'EM FLOAT
TIE UP LIFE'S TROUBLES MAKE 'EM WALK THE PLANK
DROP THE ANCHOR AT THE LOBSTER TANK
COZUMEL THAT'S SWELL, PATCHIN' HOLES IN OUR LOVE BOAT

repeat*

bridge: WE'LL MAKE THE HAMMOCK SWING
I'LL BE YOUR ISLAND ROMEO
ARE YOU WITH ME BABY, BAHAMA WANNA' GO
UNDER A BLANKET OF STARS, FOR A TIKI HUT RENDEZVOUS

Repeat*
Repeat**
