Sunshine State Lyrics - Singles - Jj Mccoy

Key of E, No Capo 

Verse 1 

Ridin' shot gun in a hummer 

but this one is dark green 

it ain't covered in chrome 

with the radio on like the ones 

we have back home 

We're dodgin' suicide bombers 

that are ready to die, skys lit up 

like the fourth of July 

man I'd give anything to be back in the USA 

CHORUS 

Like in Panama City 'round spring break 

down in Okeechobee maybe out on the lake 

walkin' Duval Street with a margarita in my hand 

at the ol' mud hole makin' lots of noise 

or in Ybor City hangin' out with the boys 

man I tell y'all it sure would be great 

if I could just get back home to the Sunshine State 

Verse 2 

I got sand in my eyes and sand in my shoes 

everybody here's got the home sick blues 

sent Billy and Jimmy home in a box last night 

well my bunk mate Andy grew up on a farm 

just last week he lost his right arm 

now he cries him self to sleep most every night 

we work sixteen hours sleep about two, spend the 

rest of the day wonderin' how to get through 

man I'd give anything to be back on friendly ground 

CHORUS 

Like in Panama City 'round spring break 

down in Okeechobee maybe out on the lake 

walkin' Duval Street with a margarita in my hand 

at the ol' mud hole makin' lots of noise 

or in Ybor City hangin' out with the boys 

man I tell y'all it sure would be great 

if I could just get back home to the Sunshine State 

Bridge 

Found this letter in a pocket of a soldier I lost 

he was a hell of a fighter and he paid the cost 

think you'll find everything you'll need here in what I read 

you'll know exactly where he'd want these ashes spread 

Like in Panama City 'round spring break 

down in Okeechobee maybe out on the lake 

walkin Duval Street with a margarita in your hand 

at the ol' mud hole makin' lots of noise 

or in Ybor City hangin' out with the boys 

man this soldier I'm talkin' 'bout sure was great 

glad he finally made it home to the Sunshine State 

To the Sunshine State...
