Lyrics Slack Tide - Jimmy Buffett
I've
got
a
fish
on
the
line
But
there
won't
be
a
feast
We've
got
too
much
in
common
And
he
shall
be
released
I've
seen
day
turn
to
night
And
watched
the
changin'
of
seasons
Things
don't
just
happen
They
happen
for
a
reason
Maybe
we'll
meet
in
Exuma
Or
down
in
the
Keys
If
I
catch
the
right
current
Or
capture
a
breeze
Out
here,
conflicts
and
chaos
completely
subside
Sailin'
back
to
where
I
came
from
Back
to
slack
tide
Well,
I
think
it's
time
to
put
some
snorkels
on
Turn
your
feet
into
flippers
Have
some
primal
fun
Dance
with
a
stranger
in
a
Mardi
Gras
parade
Find
an
empty
hammock,
take
a
nap
in
the
shade
You
can't
hold
back
the
moon
Can't
stop
the
ebb
and
flow
The
water
still
comes,
and
the
water
still
goes
It
turns
mountains
to
sand
Gave
ole
Noah
his
big
ride
Then
he
dropped
off
his
passengers
Down,
at
slack
tide
I
can't
control
anybody
Other
than
myself
Leave
those
half
empty
thoughts
High
up
on
the
shelf
If
you
cut
me
some
slack
I'll
return
the
favor
Open
that
bottle
of
fine
rum
That
together,
we
will
savor
Well,
we
could
use
some
quiet
We
could
use
a
little
calm
Find
the
good
in
everybody
Share
that
"one
love"
balm
Watch
the
predators
and
prey
Swim
along
side
by
side
Beneath
the
blue
sky
and
mangroves
Down,
at
slack
tide
I
wish
the
whole
wide
world
could
swim
along
at
slack
tide
Swim
along,
swim
along,
swim
along,
swim
along
at
slack
tide
Swim
along,
swim
along,
swim
along,
swim
along
