From the recording Slack Key Blues
Lyrics
Quit my job yesterday
final paycheck is on the way
everything is gonna be ok
I’ll find someplace to fly away
water is warm this time of year
And a steel guitar is all I hear
———————————
The ocean is blue
The sky is blue
I got the slack key blues
Paradise in middle of the sea
That is where you will find me
Down on the beach in Waikiki
Listening to the sound of open G
Lots of people lots of hotels
Pretty flowers and funny smells
——————————
The ocean is blue
The sky is blue
I got the slack key blues
Like a rainbow in the sky
Cost of living here is way too hi
Now it’s time to say goodbye
Head out west to Waianae
A hui ho it won’t be long
And I’ll be back for one more song
——————————
The ocean is blue
The sky is blue
I got the slack key blues
The ocean is blue
The sky is blue
I got the slack key blues
