An odd looking fellow walks up to the band
E E
And slips a Ben Franklin in the lead singer’s hand

Says he’s a writer and he’s got some good lines
E E
And he’d love for them to listen if they get’a little time
C D
They pull him up off the floor right in front of the crowd
G D
Wail’n along as he belts out loud

Hey they come from far and near

For the butterfly shrimp and an ice cold beer

Hey it’s always nice

A little place chill’n in paradise
