Story Behind the Song
Written in Acapulco while enjoying Tequilla and watching the sunset.
Lyrics
Show me a long line of traffic
Think I will laugh
Cashed in my ticket babe
Ain't goin' back
Ernest, he wrote of a life in the sun isles in the stream
I bid farewell to arms the torrents of spring
Are behind me now
The breeze will ease your mind
Mellow as the month of May
Lime, tequila in the setting sun
Forgetting there's a time of day
Acapulco blues
I got the sweet, sweet blues
Buffet at night on the radio driftin' over the sea
Music is more than emotion its melodical chi
Don't want no short happy life like Francis Macomber
No bell tollin' for me
No snows of Kilimanjaro I'm like the old man
And the sea
Chorus
A voice in the shade
said your mama done told you wrong
Take your drum to the shore
Play the midnight groove
You can live your life in a whirlwind
You can let it flow on the breeze
Either way, you might be dreamin' some
What are you thinkin' of?
Acapulco blues
Stuck in the midst of a hurricane
Stumblin' home
On top of the shots & cervezas another hangovers' born
After the storm I will lay me down
Put this killer to rest
With the light, I'll be on my way
Beat of the waves down in my breast
Chorus
