Wood and Metal

Yeah, That's why it's still a mystery to me,
Why some people live like they do.
So many nice things happening out there,
Never even seen the clues.
Whoa, but we're doin' fine, we can travel and rhyme.
I know we've been doing our part.
Got a Caribbean soul I can barely control
and some Texas hidden here in my heart.

Well now, if I ever live to be an old man,
I'm gonna sail down to Martinique.
I'm gonna buy me a sweat stained Bogart suit
and an African parakeet.
And then I'll sit him on my shoulder
and open up my trusty old mind.
I'm gonna teach him how to fuss,
Teach him how to cuss,
And pull the cork out of a bottle of wine.

From "Migration," by Jimmy Buffett

Except for the fact that this photo was taken near the Gulf of Mexico it doesn't really have much to do with this particular song. But as a sailor and unofficial Parrot Head, whenever I get around boats or salt water, the lyrics to Jimmy Buffett songs start streaming through my mind.
