Lyrics
VERSE
I came down here by myself just to get away
From the everyday stress that I go through
All I wanted was to rest for a few days
But what I got, instead, what I got was you

PRE-CHORUS
I was havin' a drink; you were tending bar
Looks like both of us caught a falling star

CHORUS
I'm green onions, you're key lime pie
We're a whole lot different but that's all right
Sometimes I think you're just as crazy as I
Ever thought anyone could be
Now I don't know what I'm still doin' here
Still drinkin' in the island atmosphere
But I just can't leave; let me make that clear
And I sure do hope you don't disagree

First BRIDGE
Shorts, bare feet, sunglasses, T-shirt
Cool substitutes for a suit-and-tie kinda guy

Repeat CHORUS/Second BRIDGE
My life is changing in front of my eyes
Should I remember my roots or put some down?

Repeat CHORUS/TAG
So here's to green onions and key lime pie
