Well I come from a little bitty

Homegrown small town

Smoky Mountains

Nice place to hang around

Moonshine

That's where they make it

Put it in a jug

Makes you wanna get naked

But I jumped on a grey hound bus one night

And took it all the way

To the end of the line

Stepped out in the sun

When my feet hit the sand

What a long strange trip

I spent my whole life running around

Still let the wind kinda blow me around

Well I dropped a note in a bottle

To a long-legged model

And I traded it in for

A whole another world

A pirate flag and an island girl

Well my friends back home

Think I've gone and lost my mind

Take a sip of rum and

You really would know why

Jolly Roger flying on the picnic table

Blender in the kitchen

Willing and able

Don't know what makes you say

"What the hell"

But when the salt air catches

A hold of that sail

Something about it

Makes her just wanna dance

And she loves to dance

I spent my whole life running around

Still let the wind kinda blow me around

Well I dropped a note in a bottle

To a long-legged model

And I traded it in for

A whole another world

A pirate flag and an island girl

Pirate flag and an island girl

Well I remember back home

Neath the big old moon

Tucked back in the woods

Yeah life was good

But here we are in a local bar

And drinking shooting stars

I might spend my

Whole life running around

Still let the wind kinda blow me around

Well I dropped a note in a bottle

To a long-legged model

And I traded it in for

A whole another world

A pirate flag and an island girl

A pirate flag and an island girl

A pirate flag and an island girl

A pirate flag and an island girl

A pirate flag and an island girl
