You and Me In A Rowboat To Rio

You hit the alarm clock,

life invading sleep

hide the disappointment,

but it's the life you keep

and you were so far away, so far away

and you were so far away, so far away

and in the morning,

you said it isn't far to go

and the waves left salt-streaks in your hair

and in the middle of the night

through the gulf of mexico

you said we're more than half way there

and when we got there

we found a little action

made some big dinero made it fast

now we're making love under the waves

upon the moonlight

and never mind the splinters in your..

you and me in a rowboat to rio

a couple of sharks, endangered tropical fish

enough colors to make you dizzy

but we've got all we need, got a lot of

tropical fish to eat

and our eight track tapes of thin lizzy

you and me in a rowboat to rio

sometimes you feel like the only way there

is as far as we go

and the only way back

is a road you have long forsaken

sometimes it seems like the only way through

is through rio

but I'm promising this ain't no organic trip

you've been taking

and on our way back home,

we popped a couple of beers

and remembered all the words to dark star

and when we hit the sand

we made way for higher land

and strapped her to the roof
