Pirates & Parrots (feat. Mac McAnally) Songtext
von Zac Brown Band

Another dollar on the wall
Another poet with a pen
Another beach bum with a dog
Another stranger sailin′ in

And the water's just as blue
No, you haven′t missed a thing
But we're all here missin' you
All the pirates and the parrots sing

So adios, my friend
Anchor where that ocean ends
We′ll pick up where you left off
Strummin′ on a sailor song

We'll hold down this salty rock
Where it′s always 5 o'clock
When the sun goes down, we raise our drinks
All the pirates and the parrots sing

Oh
Oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh


Tell ′em raise the bridge
The drifter's comin′ through
There's a golden stretch of beach
That's waitin′ there on you

Is the water just as blue?
We wanna hear about everything
But we′re all here missin' you
So all the pirates and the parrots sing

Adios, my friend
Anchor where that ocean ends
We′ll pick up where you left off
Strummin' on a sailor song

We′ll hold down this salty rock
Where it's always 5 o′clock
When the sun goes down, we raise our drinks
All the pirates and the parrots sing

Oh
Oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh

Gone too soon, but left a song
Passed a torch to carry on
As long as people sing along
You'll live on and on and on


So adios, my friend
Anchor where that ocean ends
We'll pick up where you left off
Strummin′ on a sailor song

We′ll hold down this salty rock
Where it's always 5 o′clock
When the sun goes down, we raise our drinks
All the pirates and the parrots sing

Oh (oh)
Oh (oh)
Oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh
Oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Adios, my friend
