Alabama - Down On Longboat Key lyrics

Your rating:

She sits and stares out the window at the water

Every night down the cafe

All alone she sips her pina colada

Talking to herself dreaming away

The story is that a dark haired stranger

Stole her heart many years ago

He promised her he'd come back and take her

Around the world bring her hills of gold



Down on longboat key

Where the island sand meet in the Gulf Stream Bridge

Down on longboat key

She spends her life in a dream

On longboat key

Down on longboat key

Down on longboat key



Each afternoon as the snugboat comes in

She runs to meet them down the pier

She sees the fisherman's nets and the sunset

But she don't see him her eyes fill with tears

She stands there looking at the crystal blue water

And in the Coral she imagine pearls

She makes believe he brought them all the way from China

The water swirls

The blue green water swirls



Down on longboat key

Where the island sand meets the Gulf Stream breeze

Down on longboat key

She spends her life in a dream

On longboat key

Down on longboat key

Down on longboat key



Young sailors makes a play to take her home

She says,"No,I'm already taken'

Oh,they just laugh when she mentions his name

She keeps on waiting,waiting,waiting,waiting



Down on longboat key

Where the island sand meets the Gulf Stream breeze

Down on longboat key

She spends her life in a dream

On longboat key

Down on longboat key

Down on longboat key
