"Island" lyrics
"Island"
Living on an island, in an ocean
Living on an island, in a sea
Walking around, surrounded by water
Living on an island, you and me
Couple of kids in the hammock
While I swing hung from the same tree
Hey, I'm on a lawn work, your phone and laundry
Living on an island, you and me
A jigsaw puzzle helps quell the boredom
When the rain came, we play the board game
On the island
Back on the mainland, they're goin' crazy
I'm getting too old for that insanity
A meal or a movie, not much can move me
From off of the island in the sea
A jigsaw puzzle helps quell the boredom
When the rain came, we play the board game
On the island
Living on an island, in an ocean
Living on an island, in a sea
Walking around, surrounded by water
Living on an island, you and me

John Prine - "How Lucky" Today I walked down the street I use to wander
Yeah, shook my head and made myself a bet
