Stranded On A Sandbar - Jimmy Buffett

I enjoy this life as a jester

Seems to keep me movin' around

Like the wind that blows

Tide that flows

Have my ups and downs

All a part of some strange plan I’m sure

Start a new chapter each day

Honey, love gets lost, time gets tossed

'Cause we’ve both got our own different ways

I feel like I’m stranded on a sandbar

Stuck in my tracks like a street car

Playin' it for all that it’s worth

I’m just payin' for my sins on earth

Now I used to go crazy for days at a time

Now I’m takin' my time with my days

Haven’t found the answers like some that I know

I’m just stuck in a fairly nice maze

Climb to the top of the island tonight

Sit beneath the cashew tree

I want to count the stars, lights on the cars

That are shinin' up and down on me

I feel like I’m stranded on a sandbar

Baby I’m stuck in my tracks like a street car

Playin' it for all that it’s worth

I’m just payin' for my sins on earth

I feel like I’m stranded on a sandbar

Sugar I’m stuck in my tracks like a street car

Playin' it for all that it’s worth

I’m just payin' for my sins on earth

Coda:

I enjoy this life as a jester

Seems to keep me movin' around
