"florida keys" lyrics

Florida Keys, have I stayed here enough?
Florida Keys, do you blame me for being stuck?
My Florida Keys, have I played you enough?
Florida Keys, do you see right through my bluff?

I'm asking you tomorrow
I'm asking you to change
How did it ever come this far?
Thought I'd have moved away

We are caught on the overseas highway
Leaving our vacation down way south
We have both been unusually silent
Yeah, I think something's wearing me down

Ooh, I'm caught below a hurricane
Her eyes staring down at me
But it's been calm for a while now
Why won't I admit it's time to leave?

Oh, Florida man and your Florida drawl
Caught an endangered fish
To hang on some snow bird's wall
Babies and spring breakers and cold dealers too
All tanning by the beach
I hate it, but I love it too

They're killing all the mangroves
And gentrifying the scene
They're coming out in droves
And ripping out the soul
They're trying to make me leave

We'd go outside and play our games
Unbothered by the heat
But now my swamp is up in flames
Fort Lauderdale has changed
It's time to plant my feet somewhere other than the Florida Keys
Yeah, I've stayed here enough
Florida Keys, you've given me all I love
Oh, my Florida Keys
Yeah, I've played you enough
Florida Keys
