Well I come from a little
bitty homegrown small town
Smoky Mountains nice
place to hang around
Moonshine that's where
they make it
Put it in a jug makes
you wanna get naked
But I jumped on a
greyhound bus one night
And took it all the way
to the end of the line
Stepped out in the sun
when my feet hit the sand
What a long strange trip
I spent my whole life
running around
Still let the wind
kinda blow me around
Well I dropped a note
in a bottle
To a long-legged model
And I traded it in for
a whole 'nother world
A pirate flag and an island girl
Well my friends back home
think I've gone
and lost my mind
Take a sip of rum
And you really
would know why
Jolly Roger flying
on the picnic table
Blender in the kitchen
willin' and able
Don't know what makes
you say what the ****
But when the salt air
catches a hold of that sail
Something 'bout it makes
her just wanna dance
And she loves to dance
I spent my whole life
running around
Still let the wind
kinda blow me around
Well I dropped a note
in a bottle
To a long-legged model
And I traded it in for
a whole 'nother world
A pirate flag and an island girl
Well I remember back home
beneath the big ol' moon
Tucked back in the woods
yeah life was good
But here we are in a local bar
and drinkin' shooting stars
I might spend my whole life
running around
Still let the wind
kinda blow me around
Well I dropped a note
in a bottle
To a long-legged model
And I traded it in for
a whole 'nother world
A pirate flag and an island girl
A pirate flag and an island girl
A pirate flag and an island girl
A pirate flag and an island girl
A pirate flag and an island girl
