Coral Gables (Live)
Wouldn't you like to see a dolphin?
Spend your afternoons just golfin'?
Sleep out on the warm beach sand
Wake up with a heavenly tan?
It's there, why wait?
Come to the Sunshine State
All the streets are lined with Palm Trees
Waving in the lazy breeze
Can't you almost feel that endless summer?
And the waves that wash that golden wonder?
Can't you feel pink beach sands
As they go down your trunks?
Leave your troubles and we'll go there
There is nothing to compare
To the luscious fruits and red ripe berries
And the many colorful canaries
That inhabit the Palm Trees by the calm seas
In Coral Gables
Spoke of in fables
A land of rest for none but the best
Fertile earth and flaming sky
Coral Gables
Surely it's the twinkle in the corner of God's eye
Can't you feel the ocean breezes
Where the weather always pleases?
There's flamingoes, parrots too
Flying through the ocean view
You'll swim and play
And sun, day after sunny day
There is room to spare and then some
Every man gets his own kingdom
And the air is filled with voices singing
Hear the music filled with joy just ringing
See the alligators
Waiting on your lawn
This is Mother Nature's backyard
Where the livings never hard
You can plant your own Garden of Eden
And grow all the food you'll ever feed on
You can swim out at night
When the undertow grabs you just right in
Coral Gables (undeveloped swamp)
Spoke of in fables (weather's always damp)
A land of rest (you can be)
For none but the best (washed out to sea)
Fertile earth and flaming sky (Bible beatin' bogs)
Coral Gables (going to the dogs)
Surely it's the twinkle in the corner of God's eye
Everybody
Coral Gables
Spoke of in fables
A land of rest for none but the best
Fertile earth and flaming sky
Coral Gables
Surely it's the twinkle in the corner of God's eye
Spend your afternoons just golfin'?
Sleep out on the warm beach sand
Wake up with a heavenly tan?
It's there, why wait?
Come to the Sunshine State
All the streets are lined with Palm Trees
Waving in the lazy breeze
Can't you almost feel that endless summer?
And the waves that wash that golden wonder?
Can't you feel pink beach sands
As they go down your trunks?
Leave your troubles and we'll go there
There is nothing to compare
To the luscious fruits and red ripe berries
And the many colorful canaries
That inhabit the Palm Trees by the calm seas
In Coral Gables
Spoke of in fables
A land of rest for none but the best
Fertile earth and flaming sky
Coral Gables
Surely it's the twinkle in the corner of God's eye
Can't you feel the ocean breezes
Where the weather always pleases?
There's flamingoes, parrots too

Fertile earth and flaming sky
Coral Gables
Surely it's the twinkle in the corner of God's eye
