I went down to Captain Tony's

To get out of the heat

I heard a voice call out to me

"Son come have a seat"

I had to search my memory

As I looked into those eyes

Our lives changed like the weather

But a legend never dies



Chorus:

He said I ate the last mango in Paris

I took the last plane out of Saigon

Took the first fast boat to China

And Jimmy there's still so much to be done



I had a third world girl in Buzios

With a pistol in each hand

She always kept me covered

As we moved from land to land



I had a damn good run on Wall Street

With my high fashion model wife

I woke up dry beneath the African sky

Just me and my Swiss Army knife



Chorus



We shot the breeze for hours

As the sun fell from the sky

And like the sun he disappeared

Before my very eyes



It was somewhere past dark-thirty

As I went back to the head

I read upon the dingy walls

The words the old man said:



Repeat Chorus 2X
