About

This song compares being on tour with being on a whaling ship. Many sailors would take wives or girlfriends during layovers on faraway islands such as Fiji, but these relationships were rarely permanent as the sailors would return to their homeland women.

You Were My Fiji Lyrics

Oh, we kissed only once
In your stripped out apartment
You sold your furniture
So we kissed on the carpet

Like a whaling ship
Oh, is being on tour you know
Next day you gotta set sail
In your 350 Ford

Oh, you, you were my Fiji
Oh, believe me
Those hours with you, they
Only expand
Oh, you, you were my Fiji
Oh, believe me
But I fell in love with
Somebody else's sand
Somebody else's dry land

You're a stripper now
In New Orleans
Fucking whale sank my van and
Took my shipmates into the sea
