"Paper Umbrellas" lyrics
I duct in that little tiki bar thinking I'd ride out the storm
She was spinning pink and yella paper umbrellas
And holding up her hand to have one more
I stood and watched her sip and crin'
Flipping through old pictures on her phone
I said, "Hey, is this seat taken?
I'd sure hate for you to have to drink alone"
She cracked a smile said, "Sit here if you want"
I said, "I don't mean to pry but girl, you're doing this all wrong
It's gonna take a lot of Pina Coladas
If you're gonna drink him off your mind
I'll sit here a little longer and get us something stronger
Something that'll work in half the time
'Cause when love don't shine like you thought it would
Ain't nothing quite like good tequila straight
To chase the clouds away
Yeah, girl, I'm here to tell ya paper umbrellas
Look good on top but they won't stop the rain
She dropped her straw back in that hour glass
And said, "I guess it's worth a shot"
I said, "Lightning it don't mix with any kind of fishing
So girl, I'm guessing time is all I got
But tonight you heed a friend and nothing more
I know what helps a heart to heel, girl, I've been there before"
It's gonna take a lot of Pina Coladas
If you're gonna drink him off your mind
I'll sit here a little longer and get us something stronger
Something that'll work in half the time
'Cause when love don't shine like you thought it would
Ain't nothing quite like good tequila straight
To chase the clouds away
Yeah, girl, I'm here to tell ya paper umbrellas
Look good on top but they won't stop the rain
Yeah, when love don't shine like you thought it would
Ain't nothing quite like good tequila straight
To chase the clouds away
Yeah, all them pink and yella paper umbrellas
Look good on top but they won't stop the rain
She was spinning pink and yella paper umbrellas
And holding up her hand to have one more
I stood and watched her sip and crin'
Flipping through old pictures on her phone
I said, "Hey, is this seat taken?
I'd sure hate for you to have to drink alone"
She cracked a smile said, "Sit here if you want"
I said, "I don't mean to pry but girl, you're doing this all wrong
It's gonna take a lot of Pina Coladas
If you're gonna drink him off your mind
I'll sit here a little longer and get us something stronger
Something that'll work in half the time
'Cause when love don't shine like you thought it would
Ain't nothing quite like good tequila straight
To chase the clouds away
Yeah, girl, I'm here to tell ya paper umbrellas
Look good on top but they won't stop the rain
She dropped her straw back in that hour glass
And said, "I guess it's worth a shot"
I said, "Lightning it don't mix with any kind of fishing
So girl, I'm guessing time is all I got
But tonight you heed a friend and nothing more
I know what helps a heart to heel, girl, I've been there before"
It's gonna take a lot of Pina Coladas
If you're gonna drink him off your mind
I'll sit here a little longer and get us something stronger
Something that'll work in half the time
'Cause when love don't shine like you thought it would
Ain't nothing quite like good tequila straight
To chase the clouds away
Yeah, girl, I'm here to tell ya paper umbrellas
Look good on top but they won't stop the rain
Yeah, when love don't shine like you thought it would
Ain't nothing quite like good tequila straight
To chase the clouds away
Yeah, all them pink and yella paper umbrellas
Look good on top but they won't stop the rain
