Yellow Beach Umbrella

When I am a flyer, I'll fly down to Miami
Get a room in one of those big resort hotels
And nobody there will ever get to know me well
And nobody there will ever get to know me well

I'll be just another yellow beach umbrella
On the shore of the southern sea
I'll be a mystery to everyone
I won't take you along with me

When I am a driver, I'll drive to Pensacola
Sleep in the sand whether the weather
Brings sunshine or rain
And nobody there will ever get to know my name, oh no
And nobody there will ever get to know my name

I'll be just another yellow beach umbrella
On the shore of the southern sea
Mmm, I'll be a mystery to everyone
I won't take you along with me

When I am a rider, I'll ride up to Tempico
Ohh, don't telephone honey
Your money'd be wasted on a telegram
'cause nobody there will ever find out who I am
Nobody there will ever find me!

I'll be just another big bright umbrella
On the shore of the southern sea
Gonna be a mystery to everyone
I won't take you along with me

Alone. All alone. On my own
So happy to be gone, gone, gone, gone
To new news and new faces
New feuds and new places

Underneath my yellow umbrella
Won't be holdin' hands
With a mobster fella
Mmm, I'm in the mood to be
Swimmin' in the nude
Sinnin' too. Too bad you
Won't be there to see

Grand. Feels so grand
Lying in the sand
Just working on this tan of mine
Ohh, you know I think that life
Is just the greatest thing

Goodbye!!
It's goodbye, darling
Your turn to cry
And you know good and well why, darling
Why you got the gong
I was into you to long
