Floridays


By: jimmy buffett
1986
For don blanding, wobby wiemer and groovula
I come from where the rivers meet the sea
Thats part of why Im so wild and fancy free
I was early into crazy ways
My folks said, its just a phase
They were hopin for better days

Now in my line of work I seem to see a lot more than most
Write em down, pass em around
Its the gospel from the coast
Reflections not just replays
Takin time to escape the maze
Lookin for better days

I spent a year of my life one night
On the beaches in old beirut
Seems that all theyre aimin for there
Is to hang around and shoot
Each others lives away
Bloody winds on a distant bay
Theyre lookin for better days

Lookin to the left
Lookin to the right
Lookin to the stars to shed some light
Hopin for a breath
Hopin for a break
Hopin for the give without the take

The dreamers line the state road
Just to watch the runway show
Slouched behind their steering wheels
They just watch the big jets go
Streakin through the mornin haze
Focal point of a distant gaze
Lookin for better days

(instrumental)

Pale invaders and tan crusaders
Are worshipping the sun
On the corner of walk and dont walk
Somewhere on u.s. 1

Im back to livin floridays
Blue skies and ultra violet rays
Lookin for better days

Im back to livin floridays
Blue skies and ultra violet rays
Lookin for better days, lookin for better days
Lookin for better days
Lookin for floridays

(better days, better ways)
Everybodys lookin for
(better days)
Somewhere beneath the shinin star
(better days)
Take me wont you take me to
(better days)
Sure could use a few
(better days)

Floridays...
