Lyrics

Like I'm A Local
Rick Amburgey

Verse 1:
Every time that I'm in the islands
I have to trade my boots for flip flops
Cause sand kept getting in my Justins
And I love watching waves hit the rocks 
Went for a swim in the ocean this morning
Left my worries there in the water 
And took some time to quiet the noise
So I lingered a little longer 

Chorus:
And I'm laying low, flying solo
Lovin a life that's mostly golden
That clock might as well be broken
I made up my mind to take every day
Nice and slow, really go with the flow
Cause I'm getting a little coastal
Like I'm a local, Like I'm a local

Verse 2:
Didn't have plans for the rest of the day 
Til my nose found the smell of jerk chicken
That's when I saw my good friend Jose
And we ate and played songs into the evening

Chorus:
And I'm laying low, flying solo
Lovin a life that's mostly golden
That clock might as well be broken
I made up my mind to take every day
Nice and slow, really go with the flow
Cause I'm getting coastal
Like I'm a local, Like I'm a local

Bridge:
Whether I'm in this paradise
Or back at home in Tennessee
I'm letting you know I'm gonna be

Chorus:
...laying low, flying solo
Lovin a life that's mostly golden
That clock might as well be broken
I made up my mind to take every day
Nice and slow, really go with the flow
Cause I'm getting coastal
Like I'm a local, Like I'm a local


Alternate Verse 1:
Leave my worries in the water
And my boots under the bed
Not a shoulda, coulda, oughta
Running circles through my head
Watching the time roll in and out
And in and out and in again
Puff, puff, pass the time clearing my mind
From all the places that I've been

Alternate Chorus:
I'm laying low, flying solo
High on life and a little you know
That clock might as well be broken
Nice and slow, really go with the flow
Cause I’m getting a little coastal
Like I'm a local, Like I'm a local
