Lyrics

Smooth sailing, baby got the wind at my back, smooth sailing, darling gonna have such a blast...I've got a bottle of tequila and a pretty senorita, pound of gold says we ain't comin' back! smooth sailin', Straits of Florida and a clear blue sea, all the way to Marina Stump Pass...darling I can't tell you how I've waited for your smile, just to hold you in my arms and touch your silky long blonde hair and look so deep into clear brown eyes, darling I can finally say my search is over now, put on your pretty birthday suit, that one that looks so doggone cute, let's rock the water 'til the well runs dry! smooth sailing...all the way to Marina Stump Pass, we'll party down with the blast from the past!...smooth sailing, they say those cold northern winds gotta blow, smooth sailin', but darling not the place that we're gonna go...you know that southern winter sun and that golden baskin' fun gonna set our inhibitions free... smooth sailing, passion's fire burnin' out of control! ain't gonna tire 'til the high tide is low...(instrumental break)...darling you can see me smiling wider than the open sea, I can see your essence shining and your aura's glow igniting every star across eternity...darling I am standing where I dreamed I'd always be, tears of joy are streamin' as the blue moon's light is gleamin'...disconnected temporarily...smooth sailing, baby got the wind at our backs, smooth sailing, let the pain and heartache die in the past...we've got a '57 vino and a very clear destino, side by side most indefinitely...smooth sailin', Straits of Florida and a clear blue sea, all the way to Marina Stump Pass...
