Chop down the cherry trees on Mango Street |
|
That's the council for you every week |
|
I'm just the kind of seafaring guy |
|
Who waits for the tide and the town to get high |
|
I don't like to do a drop of work |
|
Drive in cab nor paint the church |
|
It's been the same since I dont know when |
|
So I'm going Island hopping again |
|
Casper the suspicious ghost |
|
He floats the cargo down the coast |
|
But thats to risky for a man like me |
|
Whose face is known in the territory |
|
I'm like a fly in Harry's Bar |
|
Dont use my wings dont walk to far |
|
It's been the same since I dont know when |
|
So I'm going island hopping again |
|
Been the same since I dont know when |
|
But I'm going Island hopping again |
|
Now papa Hemingway he rent this boat |
|
With U.S bills I'm sure she'll float |
|
And I ain't buying on the street |
|
Gotta couple of merchants that I gotta meet |
|
I'm waiting here for the firebell to ring |
|
So I can watch somebody doing something |
|
Its been the same since I dont know when |
|
So I'm going Island hopping again |
|
Been the same since I dont know when |
|
But I'm going Island hopping again |
