Whoa, lookin' back at my background

Tryin' to figure out how I ever got here
Some things are still a mystery to me

I know we been doin' our part

Got a Caribbean soul I can barely control

And some Texas hidden here in my heart

Well now I might have joined
the Merchant Marine

If I hadn't learned how to sing
And on top of all that I got married too early

But now those crazy days are over

I'm gonna buy me a sweat-stained Bogart suit

And an African parakeet

I gonna teach him how to cuss
teach him how to fuss

And pull the cork out of a bottle of wine
