Another dollar on the wall Another poet with a pen Another beach bum with a dog Another stranger sailin´ in And the water´s just as blue
No, you haven´t missed a thing But we´re all here missin´ you All the pirates and the parrots sing
So adios, my friend Anchor where that ocean ends We´ll pick up where you left off Strummin´ on a sailor song We´ll hold down this salty rock Where it´s always 5 o´clock When the sun goes down, we raise our drinks All the pirates and the parrots sing Oh Oh Oh
Tell ´em raise the bridge The drifter´s comin´ through
There´s a golden stretch of beach That´s waitin´ there on you Is the water just as blue? We wanna hear about everything But we´re all here missin´ you So all the pirates and the parrots sing
Adios, my friend Anchor where that ocean ends We´ll pick up where you left off Strummin´ on a sailor song We´ll hold down this salty rock Where it´s always 5 o´clock When the sun goes down, we raise our drinks All the pirates and the parrots sing Oh Oh Oh
Gone too soon, but left a song Passed a torch to carry on As long as people sing along You´ll live on and on and on
So adios, my friend Anchor where that ocean ends We´ll pick up where you left off Strummin´ on a sailor song We´ll hold down this salty rock Where it´s always 5 o´clock When the sun goes down, we raise our drinks All the pirates and the parrots sing Oh (Oh) Oh (Oh) Oh
