Stranded On A Sandbar

Stranded on a sandbar

By: jimmy buffett

1979

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



Chorus:

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



Chorus:

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



Chorus:

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
