Intro
Verse 1
I want to go back to the island,
where the shrimp boats tie up to the pilin'.
Give me oysters and beer
for dinner every day of the year and I'll feel fine.
I'll feel fine.
Chorus
I want to be there,
Wanna to go back down and lie beside the sea there.
With a tin cup for a chalice, fill it up with good red wine,
and I'm a' chewin', on a honey-suckle vine.
Verse 2
Yeah, now, the sun goes slidin' 'cross the water
Sailboats, they go searchin' for the breeze.
Salt air it ain't thin, it can stick right to your skin,
and make you feel fine. Makes you feel fine.
Chorus
'Cause I want to be there,
Wanna to go back down and I get high beside the sea there.
With a tin cup for a chalice, fill it up with good red wine,
and I'm a' chewin', on a honey-suckle vine.
Solo
Verse 3
Yes, and now ya heard my strange proposal
Get that Packard running and let's move.
I want to be there 'fore the day, tries to steal away
and leave us behind. I've made up my mind.
Chorus
And I want to be there,
I wanna go back down and die beside the sea there.
With a tin cup for a chalice, fill it up with good red wine,
and I'm a' chewin', on a honey-suckle vine.
Yea with a tin cup for a chalice, fill it up with good red wine,
and I'm a' chewin', on a honey-suckle vine.
