Got a letter from a long lost cousin of mine

Who owns a little piece of heaven in the argentine

Its a different planet, its a different place

He calls it out of this world without traveling to space



Its not just a lesson in geography

No equation to unravel algebraically

Its written in the wind and on the tropical sea

From south of the equator it keeps callin?to me



South american well you know i would

South american if i only could

I wanna be, i wanna be going back



You only get to heaven if you chase your dreams

Let the paparazzi flash, let the tabloid scream

Ive been around too long to care what anyone says

Im hungry and im doing lunch with cameron diaz



South american shes got that tango look

South american shell read you like a book

I wanna be, i wanna be going back



It rolls off my tongue like a magical phrase

A simple translation this message conveys

Gimme that, gimme that south american girl



I wanna be, i wanna be where its at

South american im not on some trip

South american i just long for a ship

A sailing boat or anything that floats

Going back
