Cowboy Boots and Bathing Suits
By: Jerry Jeff Walker
GWe've been here a week or so
CNow it's finally time to go
GCan't believe how quickly time has Dflown
GPackin' up the bathin' suits
CGetting' out the cowboy boots
GThat's a sign we Dmust be going Ghome
GTime just stopped for a little while
CWe were part of a tiny island
GMade a lot of friends we'll keep for Dlife
GWhen we get back home to Texas
CAnd they ask us what we missed most
GI'll shrug my Dshoulders and I'll Gsmile
[Chorus]
CEarly mornings on the long boat dock
GDrinkin' coffee as the sun comes up
AmLazy days Dnapping in the big deck Gchair
CLate night dancing in the front street bar
GWalking home underneath the stars
AmMan it's like some Ddream we live down Ghere
[Instrumental]
  C    G    D     Gx2
GLast night we ate conch and lobster,
CMark said it was his favorite dinner
GMaybe even the best one of his lDife,
GDining underneath the stars
CChilean wine and Cuban cigars,
GI smiled at him and sDaid you could be rGight
GAnd he got real quiet, and he said you know,
CHell I worked hard all my life, I made a lot of dough,
GI've been everywheres
I don't think it gets any better than down hDere
GI mean the warmth and love of the people here,
Cno crime, no hate, or fear
GI don't think I'm ready
for the woDrld waiting for me back thGere
I need me just...
[Chorus]
COne more morning on the long boat dock,
Gdrinking coffee as the sun comes up
AmDrinking Bilikin Dbeer in the big deck Gchair,
Clate night dancin' in a front street bar
GMakin' love under the stars,
Amman it's like some dDream we live down hGere
CWalking home underneath the stars,
Ghearing voices from that empty bar
AmMan it's like some Ddream we live done Gthere
GWe've been here a week or so
CNow it's finally time to go
GCan't believe how quickly time has Dflown
GPackin' up the bathin' suits
CGetting' out the cowboy boots
GThat's a sign we Dmust be goin' Ghome...

Cowboy Boots and Bathing Suits

By: Jerry Jeff Walker

We've been here a week or so

Now it's finally time to go

G D

Can't believe how quickly time has flown

Packin' up the bathin' suits

Getting' out the cowboy boots

G D G

That's a sign we must be going home

Time just stopped for a little while

We were part of a tiny island

G D

Made a lot of friends we'll keep for life

When we get back home to Texas

And they ask us what we missed most

G D G

I'll shrug my shoulders and I'll smile

[Chorus]

Early mornings on the long boat dock

Drinkin' coffee as the sun comes up

Am D G

Lazy days napping in the big deck chair

Late night dancing in the front street bar

Walking home underneath the stars

Am D G

Man it's like some dream we live down here

[Instrumental]

C G D G

Last night we ate conch and lobster,

Mark said it was his favorite dinner

G D

Maybe even the best one of his life,

Dining underneath the stars

Chilean wine and Cuban cigars,

G D G

I smiled at him and said you could be right

And he got real quiet, and he said you know,

Hell I worked hard all my life, I made a lot of dough,

I've been everywheres

I don't think it gets any better than down here

I mean the warmth and love of the people here,

no crime, no hate, or fear

I don't think I'm ready

D G

for the world waiting for me back there

I need me just...

[Chorus]

One more morning on the long boat dock,

drinking coffee as the sun comes up

Am D G

Drinking Bilikin beer in the big deck chair,

late night dancin' in a front street bar

Makin' love under the stars,

Am D G

man it's like some dream we live down here

Walking home underneath the stars,

hearing voices from that empty bar

Am D G

Man it's like some dream we live done there

We've been here a week or so

Now it's finally time to go

G D

Can't believe how quickly time has flown

Packin' up the bathin' suits

Getting' out the cowboy boots

G D G

That's a sign we must be goin' home...
