Life is much too short for some folks
G D
For other folks it just drags on
D
Some folks like the taste of smokey whiskey
G A
Others figure tea is too strong
D
I'm the type of guy who likes it right down the middle
G
I don't like all this bouncing back and
D
forth
G D
Me, I want to live with my feet in Dixie
A D
And my head in the cool blue North
D
In a small suburban garden
G D
Not a single neighbor knows our name
D
I know the woman wishes we would move somewhere
G A
Where the houses aren't all the same
D
Jimmy, I wish you would take me where the grass is
greener G D
I really couldn't say where it may be
G D
Somewhere up high on a mountain top
A D
Or down by the deep blue sea
C D
And there we'll do just as we please
G A
It ain't nothing but a breeze
One day I'll soon be a grandpa
All the pretty girls will call me "sir,"
Now, where they're asking me how things are
Soon they'll ask me how things were
Well, I don't mind being a long boarding grandpa
If you'll be my awesome grandma
But I suggest we go have our cool conch salad
Shaved down in old Nassau
And there we'll do just as we please
It ain't nothing but a breeze
And there we'll do just as we please
It ain't nothing but a breeze
Life is much too short for some folks
For other folks it just drags on
Some folks like the taste of smooth tequila
Others figure tea is too strong
I'm the type of guy who likes it right down the middle
I don't like all this bouncing back and forth
Me, I want to live with my feet in Dixie
And my head in the cool blue North
Yea, me I want to live with my flip flops in Dixie
And my head in the cool blue North
