lyrics

First I'm gonna take a dive right into the ocean
Then I'll swim with the fishes in the sea
Then I'm gonna crawl right out of that ocean
Holding hands with a manatee

Ooo I bated you, I certainly hooked it up
Ooo located you, didn't let you drop
Ooo I hired you, and let you do the work
Ooo desired you, you caught the hook

And the Aplomado's come flying in
And the bugs and the insects slip under our skin
Forward steady motion smoke forms in the sky
Turquoise bluish sunset lovely day in July

First I'm gonna take a dive right into the ocean
Then I'll swim with the fishes in the sea
Then I'm gonna crawl right out of that ocean
Holding hands with a manatee

Sailing back to land she's sleeping
One hand on wheel and feeling good
I see the sunset off in the distance
No place to be where I rather would

First I'm gonna take a dive right into the ocean
Then I'll swim with the fishes in the sea
Then I'm gonna crawl right out of that ocean
Holding hands with a manatee

So we stand in the chapel of the city
Sweat dripping down she can hardly breathe
I think I'm just lucky to be a winner
Won over the great manatee

And the Aplomado's come flying in
And the bugs and the insects slip under our skin
Forward steady motion smoke forms in the sky
Turquoise bluish sunset lovely day in July
