Jamaica Mistaica


Jamaica mistaica
lyrics by jimmy buffett
music by buffett, kunkel, guth, p. mayer, j. mayer
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 full of love and luck
i've got a big suspicion 'bout ammunition
i never forget to duck
(chorus):
come back, come back back to jamaica
don't chu know we made a big mistaica
we'd be so sad if you told us good-bye
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 firing 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 cowboy sporting guns and alibis
(chorus)
they shot from the lighthouse, they shot from highway
they shot from the top of the cliff, they had all gone haywire
we're catchin' fire, and there wasn't even a spliff
Well, the word got out all over the island
friends, strangers, they were all apologizin'
some thought me crazy foe being way too nice
but it's just another shitty day in paradise
(chorus)
