lyrics

1. Two dollar ice cream cones the size of your arm...
if it rains you get half price.
It hit 40 degrees today. Looks like the weatherman was wrong again.
It's so hot, I'd take off my skin.

chours:
Islands in the sun, our piece of paradise.
Why not sit a spell and let the world go by?
Sunlight dappled on the water.
Simple joys of summer.

2. I smell sweetgrass in the air.
A sweet breeze on my cheek.
My stress left behind. It leaves me weak.
The dusty smell of kids in the sand.

(chorus)

Bridge:
Sugar in my coffee, some fine Merlot
as to-and-fro I go...
It must be five o'clock somewhere

(chorus)

3. A butterfly thinks it's hiding on the grass...nice try
as I sit and sigh.
The world just washes away (except for that mosquito).
Fires burn bright. Oh, what a sight as the smoke gets in your eyes.

(chorus)
