Lyrics
Flip Flop Land (5:52)
(T. Rudd)

Let?s get out of the city
Pack your bags we?ll leave tonight
Tee shirts and shorts are alright
We?ll catch an early flight
And be there before the sun goes down

We?ll rent a little cabana
Right next to the Tiki bar
With no phone or no car
We won?t go far
With our beach chairs stuck in the sand


Down in Flip Flop land
Will kick back the sand
Where the sun sinks low
And life goes down real slow
Yeah in Flip Flop Land

Down in Flip Flop land
We won?t make any plans
With no place to go
All day to get there you know
Down in Flip Flop Land

Down in Flip Flop Land
You almost forgot where you came from or where you?ve been
Now the time is right
For a little Cuervo tonight
And a moonlight swim

Down in Flip Flop land
Dance to a reggae band
Conch shell at your ear
You?ll hear the ocean quite clear
Down in Flip Flop Land

Solo

In Flip Flop land
You can work on your tan
And not even notice the time of day
A few Coronas with lime
Will suite me just fine
Down at Captain Tony?s Place

I guess it time to go home now
But I don?t really want to go
One more time will be there
For sunset at Mallory Square
And one last Duval Crawl

I think some day I?ll just move here
Get away from the cold and the snow
When people ask me I?ll say
Yeah, I?m OK
Man cause I live here

Down in Flip Flop land
We?ll kick back the sand
Where the sun sinks low
And life goes down real slow
Down in Flip Flop land

Down on Flip Flop Land
We won?t make any plans
When they ask me I say
Yeah I?m OK
Down in Flip Flop Land
We?ll stick our feet in the sand
Oh ain?t life grand
Down in Flip Flop land
When people ask me I?ll say
Yes cause? I live here
Down in Flip Flop Land
