[00:36.41]Down to the Banana Republics
[00:40.71]Down to the tropical sun
[00:44.86]Go the expatriated Americans
[00:50.1]Hopin' to find some fun
[00:54.31]Some of them go for the sailing
[00:58.96]Called by the lure of the sea
[01:03.49]Tryin' to find what is ailing
[01:07.77]Living in the land of the free
[01:12.33]Some of them are running from lovers
[01:16.729996]Leaving no forward address
[01:21.18]Some of them are running tons of ganja
[01:25.1]Some are running from the IRS
[01:30.229996]Late at night you will find them
[01:34.240005]In the cheap hotels and bars
[01:38.94]Hustling the senoritas
[01:42.2]While they dance beneath the stars
[01:47.97]Spending those renegade pesos
[01:51.86]On a bottle of rum and a lime
[01:58.509995]Singing give me some words I can dance to
[02:01.98]Or a melody that rhymes
[02:12.32]First you learn the native customs
[02:16.76]Soon a word of Spanish or two
[02:21.18]You know that you cannot trust them
[02:25.68]Because they know they can't trust you
[02:30.31]Expatriated Americans feelin' so all alone
[02:39.15]Telling themselves the same lies
[02:42.45999]That they told themselves back home
[03:23.20999]Down to the Banana Republics
[03:27.48]Things aren't as warm as they seem
[03:31.97]None of the natives are buying
[03:34.85]Any second hand American dreams
[03:40.82]Late at night you will find them
[03:44.78]In the cheap hotels and bars
[03:49.65]Hustling the senoritas
[03:52.66]While they dance beneath the stars
[03:58.20999]Spending those renegade pesos
[04:01.98]On a bottle of rum and a lime
[04:08.69]Singing give me some words I can dance to
[04:12.17]Or a melody that rhymes
[04:18.04]Down to the Banana Republics
[04:22.32]Down to the tropical sun
[04:26.26]Go the expatriated Americans
[04:31.34]Hopin' to find some fun
