Banana Republics
Down to the banana republics, Down to the tropical sun Come the expatriated Americans, Expecting to have some fun
Some of them come for the sailing, Drawn by the lure of the sea To cure the spirit that's ailing, from living in the land of the free
Some of them are running from lovers Leaving no forward address Some of them are running marijuana Some are running from the IRS
And late at night you will see them In the cheap hotels and bars Hustling the senoritas As they dance beneath the stars Spending the renegade pesos On a bottle of rum and a lime Singing 'Give me some words I can dance to And a melody that rhymes'
Once you learn the native customs And a word of Spanish or two Then you know you can't trust them もっと沢山の歌詞は ※ Mojim.com Because they know they can't trust you
Down in banana republics It is not always as warm as it seems When none of the natives are buying Any second-hand American dreams
Expatriated Americans are feeling so all alone Telling themselves the same lies that they told themselves at home
And late at night you will see them In the cheap hotels and bars Hustling the senoritas As they dance beneath the stars Spending the renegade pesos On a bottle of rum and a lime Singing 'Give me some words I can dance to And a melody that rhymes'
Down to the banana republics, Down to the tropical sun Come the expatriated Americans, Expecting to have some fun
