I'm a thousand miles from home, standin' between my toes Why I'm here without you, nobody knows I keep thinkin' about your dark brown eyes The day you get to me starts the rest of our lives Well, I'm here in Daytona Beach, the home of speed And I wish you could drive that fast to me I keep thinkin' about your dark brown eyes Get here to me soon, girl, where sun shines I wake up in the mornin' and I get off to work When I get home at nighttime, I watch HBO all alone So get to me before I decompose Let me see you, girl, before the baby shows I keep thinkin' about your dark brown hair I keep waitin' for you, but you're still there I wake up in the mornin' and I get off to work When I get home at nighttime, I watch HBO so alone I'm a thousand miles from home, standin' between my toes I'm just hangin' over the rail, watchin' thousands below on the boardwalk There's gotta be a million, or maybe more in the sand But I've got a chair and a table above this platform I'm hangin' out with my pals, we just met about an hour ago I'm fishin' on the pier with a gun in my hand Fishin' on the pier with a gun in my hand Fishin' on the pier with JD on the rocks Oh, so then a biplane flies by waving a flag And it's the usual advertisement we're open all night And now the clown stuck in the sand creates a traffic jam It's like driving in the snow, all the money we owe to Uncle Sam You'll never get out alive Fishin' on the pier with a gun in my hand Fishin' on the pier with a gun in my hand Fishin' on the pier with JD on the rocks I can't stop thinkin' about a while ago The way you looked, the way you showed your love to me Girl, you're fine, fine, fine, yeah And why keep watchin' the scenery What I need is you here with me tonight Girl, in time, time, time, yeah You'll be in my arms makin' love, sweet love You'll be in my arms makin' love, sweet love You'll be in my arms makin' love I'm Fishin' on the pier with a gun in my hand Fishin' on the pier with a gun in my hand Fishin' on the pier with JD on the rocks I'm just a white boy, who's tired of being a quiet boy Cause you've got something I can't resist And prejudice will have to take a back seat for now As you're number one on my list Your eyes hypnotize me, lips smooth as silk You're the sweetest black girl I know Something in your features just intrigued me somehow I feel like I could love you so Who am I fooling, my mom would be cruel (Ooo - salt & pepper) Dad would be screaming, jigger boos (Ooo - salt & pepper) Her kids, pierce their noses, her mom looks like Moses (Ooo - salt & pepper blues) They all look the same, who is who? (For you) I'm just a white boy, who's not such a bright boy Cause I know that they were all wrong They'll call you n*gger, but I'm shouting wow I even wrote you this song So screw all the assholes, cause you know and I know All hearts will pump blood red And if I feel your beauty moving me is allowed That don't mean I'm out of my head I'm just a white boy You're such a beautiful girl
