lyrics

Holiday

Caught up in this rat race life,
The bills don't pay themselves no that dog don't hunt
nine to five nine to seven nine to ninety nine
Work your fingers to the bone then your gone
Play the auto lotto and pray to make it rich,
Or write a hit record just maybe that's your schtick
A man don't work he don't eat thats so true
So tired of just scraping by,

But your my sandy beach in may
My mimosa in the sun my vacation everyday
Your my jet ski dream off a caribbean coast,
can't wait to hold you close
Your my Holiday,
Your my Holiday

Weekend comes and then it's gone
grinding monday clear through friday and that 's to long
thinking quite this job and live out the dream one day
till then It’s working toward the weekend again
Climb the corporate ladder and pay your dues
Gotta play this crap shoot whether win or loose
let the nest egg build in your 401 k
And keep your head until it's time to unwind

But your my sandy beach In May
My mimosa in the sun my vacation everyday
Your my jet ski dream off a Caribbean coast,
can't wait to hold you close
Your my Holiday,
Your my Holiday

Your my Cancun Cozumel
Sea shores and sea shells
Margarita’s Palm trees
Sunsets and Daiquiris
low tide, Coast line
Sunshine and Moonlight
Beach front Paradise
Tropical delight....
And I can't wait to hold you close

But your my sandy beach In May
My mimosa in the sun my vacation everyday
Your my jet ski dream off a Caribbean coast,
can't wait to hold you close
Your my Holiday,
Your my Holiday
