Karaoké Jamaica Mistaica Jimmy Buffett

Some folks say that I've 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 you'll be dodgin' cannonballs

I've seen too much not to stay in touch with a world made of love and luck

I've got a big suspicion 'bout ammunition

I never forget to duck

Come back

Come back

Back to Jamaica

Don't you know we made a big mistaica

We'd 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 tree top flyin'

Movin' west along the coast

Then we landed in the water

Just about my favorite thrill

When some asshole started firin' as 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 their faces when they finally realized

We were not some coked up cowboys sportin' guns and alibis

Come back

Come back

Back to Jamaica

Don't you know we made a big mistaica

We'd 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

They'd all gone haywire

We're catchin' fire and there wasn't even a spliff

Oh

Well the word got out all over the island

Friends

Strangers

They were all apologizin'

Some thought me crazy for bein' way too nice

But it's just another shitty day in paradise

Come back

Come back

Back to Jamaica

Don't you know we made a big mistaica

We'd 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

Don't you know we made a big mistaica

We'd 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
