Key West
(Bertie Higgins, Sonny Limbo, John Healy)
The boys were singing on the radio
‘Bout Margaritaville and Key Largo
Took U.S. 1 south as I could go
All the way to Key West
There on the square where the guitars play
You stepped off a page of Papa Hemingway
And like they say in the old cliché
I went all the way Key West
Where the sky and the sea know no boundary
Where the sea gulls fly free just like you and me
Slipped some rum out of Sloppy Joes
Got some sand between our toes
And as the sun set over Mexico
We fell in love in old Key West
Where the sky and the sea know no boundary
Where the sea gulls fly free just like you and me
You make my life such a holiday
I love you, kid in every way
Got just two things left to say
I love you and old Key West
Got just two things left to say
I love you and old Key West
I love you and old Key West
