Florida Key

Miami woman, so fine and fair

I try and try but I can't get anywhere

I sail out under the sun

Looking for my darling, my only one

I sail all day and when the day is done

She's still the one I want to see

I must find that Florida Key

Collins Avenue, 5th Street and Main

I walk up and down but it's all in vain

My only darling is gone

Took everything and put it out on the lawn

And Jim came and got it and he gave it to John

It's getting harder and harder to be me

I must find that Florida Key

Just standing on the curb, watching for boats

While the boys and girls pass by on their big silver goats

I'm getting out while the gettin' is good

In my ship of steel or in my ship of wood

One more time I'm gonna do just like I should

See, this could only happen to me

I must find that Florida Key

Need a little sunshine in my beer

Thinking ‘bout eloping

Nothing’s locked, never will be

Everything is open

There's only one thing that lurks in my mind

It's nothing here, nothing I've left behind

There's something up front, something I hope to find

I'm gonna set sail again tonight

'Round the horn and in the clear moonlight

Or at least I'm sure it's going to be

Soon as I find my Florida Key
