Christmas In Paradise

(Mary Gauthier/Crit Harmon)
 Davey stole a Christmas tree from K-Mart last night
 red ribbons and silver bells, angels dressed in white
 He tied, it to the bridge rail so passing cars would see
 He danced a little dance up there, looked down and smiled at me
 My bed is a lawn chair, cushions keep it soft
 I sleep in the open air, under the Southern Cross
 Next to the golf course by the Hyatt Hotel
 Davey is a friend of mine and we get along pretty well
 Christmas in paradise under the Cow Key Bridge
 Where the warm breeze blows so nice
 And the landlord forgives
 Snowbirds on the golf course wear Bermuda shorts and polo shirts
 Some play pretty good some so bad it hurts
 We pick up their golf balls that fly over the fence
 Shine 'em up a little bit and sell 'em back for fifty cents
 Christmas in paradise under the Cow Key Bridge
 Where the warm breeze blows so nice
 And the landlord forgives
 I won't lie, we just get by but we'll be eating good tonight
 Christmas dinner at 5 o'clock over at the Church of Life
 They don't care who you are and they don't ask what you done
 Come on down and bring a friend there's plenty for everyone
 Christmas in paradise under the Cow Key Bridge
 Where the warm breeze blows so nice
 And the landlord forgives
 The radio plays Christmas songs while we get high
 Davey shouts Merry Christmas y'all
 to the cars passing by
 Davey shouts Merry Christmas y'all
