"Tanqueray" lyrics

"Tanqueray"

Once again I slip back in the gin and settle in
Oh my bottle and me sail out to sea to meet her again
Than El Cafe Khartoum near a quiet lagoon
Where we played and played
All the ladies sing your Caribbean dreams drinking Tanqueray

Tanqueray take me away
You're a time machine that I need day by day
Tanqueray take me away
Each time that I need her gets sweeter and sweeter
Take me away Tanqueray

Morning comes takes me from another night with you
So I hurry through what I have to do to get back to you
That El Cafe Khartoum near a quiet lagoon
Where we played and played
All the ladies sing your Caribbean dreams drinking Tanqueray

Tanqueray take me away
You're a time machine that I need day by day
Tanqueray take me away
Each time that I need her gets sweeter and sweeter
Take me away Tanqueray

Each time that I need her gets sweeter and sweeter
Take me away Tanqueray
