(Jimmy Buffett, Peter Mayer, Roger Guth, Will Kimbrough)
She owns a window to the ocean
She has a pipeline to the sky
But earthly creatures rarely notice
When Guardian Angels pass them by
Like a gecko behind a painting
With hidden wisdom to impart
In a world that needs more dancing
She's a hula girl at heart
Photographs show she is lovely
Her bare feet are a work of art
Her fragrance speaks of frangipani
Yes she's still a hula girl at heart
With Her pad and watercolors
Drawing fish and butterflies
Children always seem to conjure
Images they recognize
In the land beside the ocean
Where romantics seem to dwell
Destiny can set in motion
Ripples that turn into swells
She Knows how to face the music
She Knows where the magic starts
In a world that needs more dancing
She's still a hula girl at heart
Songs sing slow
Days zoom by
Time can't keep her
Nor can I
She has worn a wealth of costumes
Hula skirt to wedding gown
Lived in cities walked through jungles
Always sees the sun go down
In this age of teeming tourists
Fellow travelers know her well
The darling of deserted beaches
Hides her wisdom in a shell
Her sensual and easy motion
Seems impossible to chart
In a world that needs more dancing
She's still a hula girl at heart
Jimmy Buffett (1946-2023) was an American singer-songwriter, musician, and author known for his "Parrothead" style of music, which blends elements of country, folk, rock, and calypso. Born in Pascagoula, Mississippi, Buffett spent his childhood in various locations across the United States before settling in Key West, Florida, where he began his musical career in the 1970s. His success is attributed to songs like "Margaritaville", "Come Monday", and "Cheeseburger in Paradise", which made Buffett a cultural icon associated with a relaxed and idyllic atmosphere. Besides music, Buffett wrote several novels and non-fiction books, including the bestseller "A Pirate Looks at Forty". His music and personality inspired a large fan base, the "Parrotheads", who celebrate simple living and a love for vacations. Buffett died in 2023 at the age of 76.
