Jim Morris - Laid Back And Key Wasted Lyrics
“Yeah, Man?”“My Coozie's empty, how bout handing me one of those ice cold beers?”“Oh, I'll be glad to buddy…”“Oh, now I feel like signing….”He was three years outa college, a damn good engineerWorked hard all day, then he partied awayThings were happy on the old frontierHad a plan for taking life easyAvoiding the kids and the wifeWell he drove all the women crazyThese were the three best years of his lifeThen the corporate boys they called himSaid, “We got a job to do!”“Got this problem up in North Dakota, boyYeah we need a man just like you!”But the sounds of the planes, and the freezing rainHit him like a fatal diseasePut a beer to his mouth, He took 95 southAnd he headed for the KeysChorus:Oh, and its just the sweetest life hes ever tastedLittle laid back and Key wastedGot his toes in the sand, hes a tropical manHes happy as hell and it showsHes just a living in a drunken stuporMakin some money on that old Square GrouperNever had any doubt, hell if it doesnt work outWell, thats just the way it goesGot a job making MargaritasIn a little bar by the pierTill he finally made some connectionsWith some big time BuccaneersNow he spends some time in CartegenaMaking plans for the haulMight be dealing with bumsMight be dangerous to someBut the old boy is having a ballChorus:Now his friends all worry about himThey think he's throwing his future awayKinda hard being upwardly mobileWhen your laying in the sun all daySo they call him up to convince himTell him what its all aboutBut on the phone he could never stop laughinNo, got the whole damn thing figured outChorus:Never had any doubt, Hell, If it doesn't work outWell thats just the way it goesThats just the way it goes!
