I grew up on the beach and have been a Buffett fan all my life. This is a collection of beach music.
"I'm Gonna Be A Pirate"
(C) Anthony Powers 2011/2015
(verse 1)
WelI I hit the road a running
left a cloud of dust in the air
I had no idea where I was going
and I didn't really care
at the end of the highway
I am told I'll find the sea
then I park my truck, buy a boat
and that's the last they'll see of me
(chorus 1)
I'm gonna be a pirate
and sail the ocean blue
I'm going be a pirate
and do what pirates do
I'm gonna be the captain
on a windward course I'll steer
if they ask, say I'll be back
when I run out of beer
verse 2
I will swim with the dolphins
then I'll just lay out in the sun
singing along with Jimmy Buffet
t
being a pirate sure is fun
being a pirate sure is fun
I'll set a course for the islands
with the help of the stars
I hope I find some islander’s
and some hopping Tiki bars
(CHORUS 2)
I'm gonna be a pirate
and sail the ocean blue
I'm gonna be a pirate
but I still think about you
I'm gonna be the captain
on a windward course I’ll steer
If they ask say I’ll be back
when I run out of beer
(BRIDGE)
It's not the sea getting rough
that's really my worst fear
I just looked in my treasure chest
and I’m almost out of beer
(LAST CHORUS)
I’m gonna be a pirate
but I don't want to be alone
I’m gonna be a pirate
I’m gonna sail this ship back home
at home I'll be the captain
it's much safer to pirate here
if they ask say I came back
because of you and lack of beer
If they ask say I came back
because of you and ice cold beer
