Jimmy Buffett - Landfall текст песни

By: jimmy buffett

1977

Now what would they do if I just sailed away

Who the hell really compelled me to leave today

Runnin low on stories of what made it a ball

What would they do if I made no landfall

I lived half my life in an eight by five room

Just crusin to the sound of the big diesel boom

Its not close quarters that would make me snap

Its just dealing with the daily unadulterated crap

Chorus:

Sail away, for a month at a time

Sail away, Ive got to restart my mind

And youll find me back at it again

Oh, I love the smell of fresh snapper fried light

What you say pouilly-fusse to round out the night

The mid-morning watch is the best time to look

Oh, what would they do if I wrote the big book

cause Ive seen incredible things in my years

Some days were laughter and others were tears

If I had it all to do over again

Id just get myself drunk and Id jump right back in

Chorus:

Sail away, thats the way I survive

Sail away, thats just no shuck and jive

It just makes my whole life come alive

The wind whistles through the cold riggin at night

Crazy crowds boogie to the sounds and the lights

Bums down in capos hes just havin a ball

What would he do on another landfall

What would they do if I made no landfall

Oh, what would they do if I flew to nepal

What would I do if I met lucille ball

Im tryin to make a little sense of it all

Just tryin to make a little sense of it all
