Song Lyrics

Sittin' here sinkin' in my nylon chair; all stretched out in the salty air, watchin' the sail boats rock and the sea waves roll. A beach umbrella and some cut off jeans; gotta funny feelin' that's all I'll need, all dressed down and nowhere to go. CHORUS: Shovelin' sunshine, that's what I'll say, if you ever ask me what I do all day. There's not really too much to it, but somebody's gotta do it. Shovelin' sunshine, hey, now this is the life, it's a tropical state of mind, strummin' my old guitar and shovelin' sunshine. 2nd VERSE: Think I'll head to Charlie's down on Sunset Bay; that's where the happy hour lasts all day; you never meet a stranger when the party begins. Eatin' those oysters right out of the shell, there's free beer tomorrow, oh, what a deal (or 'what the hell'); another day in paradise that never ends. REPEAT CHORUS:
