Jimmy Buffett - Manana Lyrics
MananaBy: jimmy buffett1978She said I cant go back to america soonSo goddamn cold its gonna snow until juneYeah, theyre freezin up in buffalo stuck in their carsAnd Im lyin here neath the sun and the starsCustoms man tells her that shes gotta leaveShes got a plan hidden up her shrewd sleeveWants to find her a captain, a man of strong mindAnd any direction he blows will be fineChorus:Please dont say manana if you dont mean itI have heard those words for so very longDont try to describe the ocean if youve never seen itDont ever forget that you just may wind up being wrongTried and I tried but I dont understandNever seemed to work out the way I had it plannedHangin out at a marina when steve martin calledSingin anybody there really want to get smallBut women and water are in short supplyTheres not enough dope for us all to get highI hear it gets better, thats what they sayAs soon as we sail on to cane garden bayChorus:Please dont say manana if you dont mean itI have heard your lines for so very longDont try to describe the scenery if youve never seen itDont ever forget that you just may wind up in my song-- spoken: alright lets reggae reefers!Called all my friends on those cheap nightly ratesSure was good to talk to the old united statesWhile the lights of st. thomas lie twenty miles westI see general electrics still doing their bestI got to head this boat south pretty soonNew albums old and Im fresh out of tunesBut I know that Ill get em, I know that theyll comeThrough the people and places and caldwoods rumChorus:So please dont say manana if you dont mean it (dont mean it)I have done your lines for so very longDont try to describe a kiss concert if youve never seen itDont ever forget that you just may wind up being gongedCoda:And I hope anita bryant never ever does one of my songsNo no no
