I went down to Captain Tony's
To get out of the heat
And I heard a voice call out to me
Son come have a seat
I had to search
My memory
As I looked
Into those eyes
Our lives changed
Like the weather
But a legend never dies
He said
I ate the last mango in Paris
I took the last plane
Out of Saigon
Took the first fast boat to China
And Jimmy there's
Still so much to be done
I had a third world girl
In Buzios
With a pistol in each hand
She always kept me covered
As we moved from land to land
I had a **** good
Run on Wall Street
With my high fashion model wife
I woke up dry beneath
The African sky
Just me and my
Swiss Army knife
I ate the last mango in Paris
I took the last plane
Out of Saigon
Took the first fast boat to China
And Jimmy there's
Still so much to be done
We shot the breeze for hours
As the sun fell from the sky
And like the sun he disappeared
Before my very eyes
It was somewhere
Past dark-thirty
As I went back to the head
I read upon the dingy walls
The words the old man said
I ate the last mango in Paris
I took the last plane
Out of Saigon
Took the first fast
Boat to China
And Jimmy there's still
So much to be done
I ate the last mango in Paris
I took the last plane
Out of Saigon
Took the first fast
Boat to China
And Jimmy there's still
So much to be done
That's why we wander
And follow La Vie Danson
