coconut tree

Gerry Rafferty

I live under the coconut tree
I lie in the sun and I swim in the sea
I make my bed below the sky
I still watch the world just a passinââ?¬â?¢ me by.

Hey hey, itââ?¬â?¢s good to be free
ââ?¬Ë?Cause theyââ?¬â?¢ll never ever find me ââ?¬Ë?neath the coconut tree.

I left home because of my nagging wife
Man oh man it was a terrible life
She took all my money and she left me with none
So I packed my bags and decided to run.

My wife and family are looking for me
But theyââ?¬â?¢ll never ever find me ââ?¬Ë?neath the coconut tree.

Hey hey, itââ?¬â?¢s good to be free
ââ?¬Ë?Cause theyââ?¬â?¢ll never ever find me ââ?¬Ë?neath the coconut tree.

I live under the coconut tree
I lie in the sun and I swim in the sea
I make my bed below the sky
I still watch the world just a passinââ?¬â?¢ me by.

My wife and family are looking for me
But theyââ?¬â?¢ll never ever find me ââ?¬Ë?neath the coconut tree.
