Cowboy Boots and Bathing Suits By: Jerry Jeff Walker G We've been here a week or so C Now it's finally time to go G D Can't believe how quickly time has flown G Packin' up the bathin' suits C Getting' out the cowboy boots G D G That's a sign we must be going home G Time just stopped for a little while C We were part of a tiny island G D Made a lot of friends we'll keep for life G When we get back home to Texas C And they ask us what we missed most G D G I'll shrug my shoulders and I'll smile Chorus: C Early mornings on the long boat dock G Drinkin' coffee as the sun comes up Am D G Lazy days napping in the big deck chair C Late night dancing in the front street bar G Walking home underneath the stars Am D G Man it's like some dream we live down here C Last night we ate conch and lobster, G Mark said it was his favorite dinner Am D G Maybe even the best one of his life, C Dining underneath the stars G Chilean wine and Cuban cigars, AM D G I smiled at him and said you could be right C And he got real quiet, G And he said you know, Am D G Hell I worked hard all my life C I made a lot of dough, G I've been everywhere AM D G I don't think it gets any better than down here C I mean the warmth and love of the people here, G no crime, no hate, or fear G I don't think I'm ready AM D G for the world waiting for me back there I need me just... Chorus: C One more morning on the long boat dock, G drinking coffee as the sun comes up Am D G Drinking Bilikin beer in the big deck chair, C late night dancin' in a front street bar G Makin' love under the stars, Am D G man it's like some dream we live down here C Walking home underneath the stars, G hearing voices from that empty bar Am D G Man it's like some dream we live done there G We've been here a week or so C Now it's finally time to go G D Can't believe how quickly time has flown G Packin' up the bathin' suits C Getting' out the cowboy boots G D G That's a sign we must be goin' home...
