I'm sitting here on this beach chair
Loving the tropical breeze
Enjoying a cold Margarita
Doing what-ever I please

I sold everything that I worked for
cashed in my 401k
I went and purchased a ticket
only going one way

Hey I'm feeling fine  and I'm having Fun
Some call it brave some  call it dumb
I got to hand it to Jimmy
He's created another Beach Bum

I did everything that they told me
I worked everyday of my life
Now I'm under this Palm tree
Having a burger in Paradise

I'm loving life in the moment
All of my worries are gone
I just saw something special
And she was wearing a thong

This is the place that I'll call home
This is the real life for me
Found my own little slice of heaven
way down here out by the sea

I just made a new friend here
Him and I had a talk
Importing Colombian products
doesn't seem like too bad of job

No I'm explaining my story
To a man who works for the law
trying like hell to convince him
That I didn't do anything wrong

Hey I skipped Bail I'm out on the run
This new life well it ain't much fun
I give credit to Jimmy
He's created another beach bum

Yeah I'm living life out on the run
So long to flip flops and coconut rum
A big shout out to Jimmy
He's created another beach Bum


Thanks everybody! :)

Thanks, Mark - and sorry for responding soooooo late!

This is one of the songs on my "to be mixed better" list, actually. I just have too many other songs to work on (as always) to find the time. Maybe during the holidays.

But I'm glad you like it as is. :)
