Lyric My Lovely Lady
By: Jimmy Buffett
1973
When I pay my bills
Gonna leave these Tennessee hills
Take my lady to the sea
That s where we both come from
That s where we both belong
Think I ll go back to the Keys
Chorus:
Cause I don t want the fame that brings confusion
Where people recognize you on a plane
All I want s the quiet and the comforts
That livin with my lovely lady brings
Somehow we survived the double talk and jive
Things are looking better all the time
I owe her all I can cause she made me understand
The simple way that we should live our lives
Chorus:
And I don t want the fame that brings confusion
Where people recognize you on a plane
All I want s the quiet and the comforts
That livin with my lovely lady brings
Let me tell you now she can eat her own weight up in crab meat
And there s plenty of that down there by the sea
Well we re sailin in those warm December breezes
Sendin picture postcards back to Tennessee
Chorus:
Yes and I don t want the fame that brings confusion
Where people recognize you on a plane
All I want s the quiet and the comforts
That livin with my lovely lady brings
Yeah that livin with my lovely lady brings
