Buffett Jimmy Hot Water Prince Of Tides Prince of Tides --------------- by Jimmy Buffett and Michael Utley African drums are silent and the Wingos are poets at last Out on Dafuskie island, the bulldozers bury the past And the low country sinks, she can not swim the dogwood feels the hurt While the foursome plays on borrowed days in their alligator shirts Chorus: Now I realize who killed the Prince of Tides How can you tell how it used to be When there's nothing left to see One night they put a price on the sunset And that the got the whole earth shaking Those rose from the grave both the weak and the brave Because history was there for the making And the winos surrounded the condos forming a frail human fence And they shouted out loud to the roar of the crowd "Same old story, more dollars than sense" Chorus: Now I realize who killed the Prince of Tides How can you tell how it used to be When there's nothing left to see Paperback novels make the young girls dream And Judy's spending quieter days in the stream With Giovinno, Goodman and Mac D They were such good friends to me Chorus: Now I realize who killed the Prince of Tides How can you tell how it used to be When there's nothing left to see Heaven knows but God decides When to kill the Prince of Tides How can you tell how it used to be When there's nothing left to see Nothing left to see And beach music beach music beach music just plays on |
