Tin Cup Chalice — текст песни (Jimmy Buffett)

By: jimmy buffett

1974

I wanna back to the island

Where the shrimp boats tie up to the pilin

Gimme oysters and beer

For dinner every day of the year and Ill feel fine

Ill feel fine



Chorus:

I wanna be there

Wanna go back down and lie beside the sea there

With a tin cup for a chalice, fill it up with good red wine

And Im a chewin on a honeysuckle vine



Yeah now, the sun goes slidin cross the water

Sailboats they go searchin for the breeze

Salt air it aint thin

It can stick right to your skin and make you feel fine

Makes you feel fine



Chorus:

I wanna be there

Wanna go back down and a get high by the sea there

With a tin cup for a chalice, fill it up with good red wine

And Im a chewin on a honeysuckle vine



Yes and now you heard my strange proposal

So get that packard up and lets move

I wanna be there before the day

Tries to steal away and leave us behind

Ive made up my mind



Chorus:

And I wanna 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 Im a chewin on a honeysuckle vine



Coda:

Yeah with a tin cup for a chalice, fill it up with good red wine

And Im a chewin on a honeysuckle vine



Again... to miss jane
