C                       F
I beg your pardon momma what did you say

G                         C
My mind was drifting on a Martinque day

                          F
It's not that I'm not interested you see

G                       C
Augusta Georgia is just no place to be

                       F
I think Jamaica in the moonlight

G                      C
Sandy beaches drinking rum every night

C                        F
We've got no money momma but we can go

G                                     C
We'll split the difference  and go to Coconut grove

C                          F
Just keep on talking momma I can hear

G                          C
Your voice it tickles down inside of my ear

C                 F
I feel a tropical vacation this year

G                           C
Might be the answer to this Hillbilly beer

                       F
I think Jamaica in the moonlight

G                      C
Sandy beaches drinking rum every night

C                        F
We've got no money momma but we can go

G                                     C
We'll split the difference  and go to Coconut grove

C            F
Viola an American dream

G                     C
We can travel girl without any means

C                    F
When it's as easy as closing your eyes

G                      C
And dream Jamaica is a big neon sign

Just keep on talking momma I like the sound

G                          C
It goes so good with that rain poring down

C                 F
I feel a tropical vacation this year
