Train - Mai Tais Lyrics

Train Lyrics

"Mai Tais"
(feat. Skylar Grey)

I'll be sippin' Mai-Tais
Looking back at my life
Remembering the highlights
Thinking how the time flies
I'll be watching sunsets
And I won't have one regret
It's hard to see it at the moment
But in the end I know that
I'll be sippin'

Mai-Tais sippin' in the middle of the afternoon
Daydream drinking, baby, here's to you
Looks like we made it and we ain't even through
It ain't even two and nothing compares to you

Making memories and some we might recall
Coming from the heart, not the alcohol
Swaying on a hammock and if we fall
We fall

I'll be sippin' Mai-Tais
Looking back at my life
Remembering the highlights
Thinking how the time flies
I'll be sippin' red wine
Looking back on my life
Remembering the stage fright
The butterflies at night
I'll be sippin'

La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
I'll be sippin'
La la la la la la la la
La la la
I'll be sippin'

Boat drinks, most think umbrellas are to keep you dry
Truth is they were made for a Mai-Tai
Keep the sun out the glass, cherry close to the rim
Man the time goes fast when you're sippin'

Baby, you and me, add a palm tree
And when you love your neighbor baby then the sugar's free
When you love your neighbor that's the way it's supposed to be
I'm just glad your only neighbor's me

I'll be sippin' Mai-Tais
Looking back at my life
Remembering the highlights
Thinking how the time flies
I'll be sippin' red wine
Looking back on my life
Remembering the stage fright
The butterflies at night
I'll be sippin'

La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la

Oh, do you remember?
What we did last night
Oh yeah that's right
Trading Vics in the 510
Talking when we live the high life

Ride around the ocean in a big ass boat
And when it comes to breakfast baby I'm the GOAT
I'll start em over easy then we'll do a George and Weezy
And we'll get right back to making more good times

Mai-Tais
Looking back at my life
Remembering the highlights
Thinking how the time flies
I'll be sippin' red wine
Looking back on my life
Remembering the stage fright
The butterflies that night
I'll be watching sunsets
And I won't have one regret
'Cause I love your every moment
And in the end I know that
I'll be sippin'

La la la la la la la la
Red wine
La la la la la la la la
Oh oh
La la la la la la la la
Yeah
La la la
I'll be sippin'

Train announced this song on Twitter on the 9th of November 2019 with the message, "Word on the street is that we're going to be on next week's episode of @MagnumPICBS. Get those Mai Tais ready."

Skylar Grey told some details about "Mai Tais" in an interview with Idolator.com published on the 18th of October 2019, "Another thing that we did recently was for Train. Elliot was sitting in the living room playing guitar. He just started jamming away and saying this line, 'I'll be sipping Mai Tais.' He started singing. He was like, 'That's stupid.' I was like, 'No, babe, that's so dope. We got to turn that into a song.' [...] We went to Hawaii last week to film an episode of 'Magnum P.I.' to premiere the song."
