Cowboy In The Jungle - Jimmy Buffett[00:00:00]

Written by：Jimmy Buffett[00:00:01]

There's a cowboy in the jungle[00:00:08]

And he looks so out of place[00:00:12]

With his shrimpskin boots and his cheap Cheroots[00:00:17]

And his skin as white as paste[00:00:21]

Headin' south to Paraguay[00:00:26]

Where the gauchos sing and shout[00:00:29]

Now he's stuck in Porto Bello[00:00:34]

Since his money all ran out[00:00:37]

So he hangs out with the sailors[00:00:44]

Night and day they're raisin' hell[00:00:48]

And his original destination's just another[00:00:52]

Story that he loves to tell[00:00:57]

With no plans for the future[00:01:01]

He still seems in control[00:01:05]

From a bronco ride to a ten foot tide[00:01:09]

He just had to learn to roll[00:01:13]

Roll with the punches[00:01:18]

Play all of his hunches[00:01:22]

Made the best of whatever came his way[00:01:26]

What he lacked in ambition[00:01:33]

He made up with intuition[00:01:37]

Plowing straight ahead come what may[00:01:42]

Steel band in the distance[00:01:49]

And their music floats across the bay[00:01:52]

While American women in muumuus[00:01:56]

Talk about all the things they did today[00:02:00]

And their husbands quack about fishing[00:02:04]

As they slug those rum drinks down[00:02:08]

Discussing who caught what[00:02:12]

And who sat on his butt[00:02:14]

But it's the only show in town[00:02:16]

They're tryin' to drink all the punches[00:02:20]

They all may lose their lunches[00:02:25]

Tryin' to cram lost years into five or six days[00:02:29]

Seems that blind ambition erased their intuition[00:02:36]

Plowin' straight ahead come what may[00:02:45]

I don't want to live on that kind of island[00:02:52]

No I don't want to swim in a roped off sea[00:02:59]

Too much for me[00:03:07]

Too much for me[00:03:10]

I've got to be where the wind and the water are free[00:03:15]

Alone on a midnight passage[00:03:23]

I can count the falling stars[00:03:27]

While the Southern 'cross and the satellites[00:03:31]

They remind me of where we are[00:03:35]

Spinning around in circles[00:03:39]

Living it day to day[00:03:43]

And still twenty four hours maybe sixty good years[00:03:47]

It's still not that long a stay[00:03:51]

We've gotta roll with the punches[00:03:55]

Learn to play all of our hunches[00:03:59]

Makin' the best of whatever comes your way[00:04:03]

Forget that blind ambition[00:04:10]

And learn to trust your intuition[00:04:14]

Plowin' straight ahead come what may[00:04:19]

And there's a cowboy in the jungle[00:04:25]
