“Hey Randy?” “Yeah, Man?” “My Coozie's empty, how bout handing me one of those ice cold beers?” “Oh, I'll be glad to buddy…” “Oh, now I feel like signing….” He was three years outa college, a damn good engineer Worked hard all day, then he partied away Things were happy on the old frontier Had a plan for taking life easy Avoiding the kids and the wife Well he drove all the women crazy These were the three best years of his life Then the corporate boys they called him Said, “We got a job to do!” “Got this problem up in North Dakota, boy Yeah we need a man just like you!” But the sounds of the planes, and the freezing rain Hit him like a fatal disease Put a beer to his mouth, He took 95 south And he headed for the Keys Chorus: Oh, and its just the sweetest life hes ever tasted Little laid back and Key wasted Got his toes in the sand, hes a tropical man Hes happy as hell and it shows Hes just a living in a drunken stupor Makin some money on that old Square Grouper Never had any doubt, hell if it doesnt work out Well, thats just the way it goes Got a job making Margaritas In a little bar by the pier Till he finally made some connections With some big time Buccaneers Now he spends some time in Cartegena Making plans for the haul Might be dealing with bums Might be dangerous to some But the old boy is having a ball Chorus: Now his friends all worry about him They think he's throwing his future away Kinda hard being upwardly mobile When your laying in the sun all day So they call him up to convince him Tell him what its all about But on the phone he could never stop laughin No, got the whole damn thing figured out Chorus: Never had any doubt, Hell, If it doesn't work out Well thats just the way it goes Thats just the way it goes!
