Beach Bum

No I never tasted rum

Basking in the sunshine

On an old deserted beach.

Only soul to inhabit it

Since way back when.

 

Here I lie without a worry.

No cares to bother me.

Just an old beach bum

With his trusty bottle of rum.

 

Oh I've had a few too many,

But who cares about a rum pot.

I just mind my own business

And let the sun sober me up.

I tasted enough rum so that you didn't have to . . .
