Tanqueray
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Once again, I slip back in the gin and settle in
Oh, my bottle and me sail out to sea to meet her again
That el café kartoum near a quiet lagoon where we played
And played
All the ladies sing your caribbean dreams drinkin'
Tanqueray
Tanqueray, take me away
You're a time machine that I need day by day
Tanqueray, take me away
Each time that I meet her gets sweeter and sweeter
Take me away tanqueray.
Morning comes, takes me from, another night with you
So I hurry through what I have to do to get back to you
That el café kartoum near a quiet lagoon
Where we played
And played
All the ladies sing
Your caribbean dreams drinkin'
Tanqueray.
Tanqueray, take me away
You're a time machine that I need day by day
Tanqueray, take me away
Each time that I meet her gets sweeter and sweeter
Take me away tanqueray
Each time that I meet her gets sweeter and sweeter
Take me away tanqueray
