Close Calls lyrics

[Caribbean Soul 9]

Close Calls
Equal Strain on All Parts
Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band

Close calls
Close calls
I will survive
Brick walls, big balls
Lucky just to be alive

I fought Buford Pusser in a honky-tonk joint
He whipped my ass
That’s beside the point

Close calls
Close calls
Lucky just to be alive

I’ve been in lots
of tight spots
So many that I can’t explain

Big shots, bon-mots
I don’t always use my brain

Scuba diving Pensacola
120 ft down
I’m so glad Jack buddy-breathed me
Or I guess I would’ve drowned

Close calls
Close calls
I don’t always use my brain

Life can be a pickle
Or a stalk of sugar cane
One day your wrestling gators
Next day your singing
Never been to Spain
In Spain in Spanish!

Close calls
Close calls
I will survive

Break walls
Big balls
Lucky just to be alive

I fought Buford Pusser in a Hony Tonk joint
He beat my ass
That’s beside the point

Close calls
Close calls
Lucky just to alive

Close calls
Close calls
I will survive

Close calls
Close calls
Lucky just to alive
