Thread Name: Lyr Req: Slowin' Down to Old Maui
Subject: Lyr Add: ROLLING DOWN FROM OLD MAUI
From the pen of Pam Swan of the San Francisco Bay Area:
ROLLING DOWN FROM OLD MAUI
It's a rough tough life Of toil and strife We singles undergo And we don't give a damn When the date is done How bad that date did go
We're homeward bound Met a Club Med clown On a cruise that wasn't free And now I'm done Drinkin' Coke and Rum With the boys in old Maui
Chorus: Rollin' down from Old Maui, me boys Rollin' down from Old Maui We're homeward bound From the tourist town Rollin' down from Old Maui
Once more I sailed With a muscular male Thinkin' maybe he's my man But his coconut brain Made our dialog strain And I won't see him again
Six hellish days I've pissed away On a cruise that wasn't free And now I'm done I've had my fun Get me home from Old Maui
Chorus: Rollin' down from Old Maui...
Once more I sailed With Julie and Gail On our vacation week It rained and poured We all got bored And Julie met some geek
We got a little carried away In a bar in Lahina sound And now the cops are after us Thank God we're homeward bound
Chorus: Rollin' down from Old Maui...
How soft the breeze Through the island trees And my heart will never learn Them native boys With their jet-ski toys Are awaiting my return
Every now and then We'll go back again Maybe someday soon, we'll see I'll bag this job My savings rob And go back to Old Maui
