Jimmy Buffett
Barometer Soup
[Chorus]
Follow in my wake, you've not that much at stake
For I have plowed the seas and smoothed the troubled waters
Come along, let's have some fun, the hard work has been done
We'll barrel roll into the sun, just for starters
[Verse 1]
Just for starters, barometer's my soup
I'm descended from a deck hand on a sloop
I travel on the song lines that only dreamers see
Not known for predictability
[Chorus]
Come and follow our wake, you've not that much at stake
For we have plowed the seas and smoothed the troubled waters
Come along, let's have fun, it seems our work is done
We'll barrel roll into the sun, just for starters
[Verse 2]
Sail the main course in a simple, sturdy craft
Keep her well-stocked with short stories and long laughs
Go fast enough to get there, but slow enough to see
Moderation seems to be the key
[Bridge]
Constantly searching, my eyes have seen some horizons
And I've crossed the oceans for more than just thrills
No, I'm not the first, won't be the last
You lust for the future but treasure the past
[Chorus]
Follow in my wake, you've not that much at stake
For I have plowed the seas, and smoothed the troubled waters
Come along, let's have some fun, the hard work has been done
We'll barrel roll into the sun, just for starters
[Refrain]
We'll barrel roll into the sun, just for starters
We'll barrel roll into the sun, just for starters
