Panama - Jerry Joseph

At least you’re trying

Everybody else down here’s just buying

Whatever is at the going rate today

It’s always got to be about the chase

My friend Spike

Said sorry, but it’s just a pony ride

But it’s on the table here today

So it’s going to have to be okay

In Panama

In Panama

It’s going to have to be okay

And then we give it all away

We’ll at least you’re thinking

Everybody else I know is just drinking

Drinking up a wave of regret

And I don’t think they’ve finished drinking yet

In the dancing hall

Samy and Sandra Sandoval

Finger on the heartbeat of it all

From Pedasi to Cambutal

In Panama

In Panama

It’s going to have to be okay

But everybody loves you anyway

And then the question comes up

Are we wasting our time

Is this the presence of God

Or just a presence of mind

In Panama

In Panama

It’s going to have to be okay

Think you’re going to make it anyway

Hanging over

Over to a hanger for a party

The flying season’s getting started

You’ll take it on a wing and fly away

We’ll at least you’re flying

Because everybody else I know here’s dying

It’s what you’ve got to love about the crocodile

At least he’s going to kill you with a smile

In Panama

In Panama

It’s going to have to be okay

Everybody loves you anyway

In Panama

In Panama

It’s going to have to be okay

Everybody loves you, baby
