livin' on island time

i've been bustin' my chops just to stay alive

workin' hard from 8:00-5:00 every day

and lately i've been wonderin'

better hurry up and slow down this pace

step out of this rat race

to keep myself from stumblin'

so alright already come down from the ledge

start makin' your way to the water's edge

where the sun is always shinin'

livin' on island time

livin' on island time

chillin' out feelin' alright

it's paradise all day all night

livin' on island time

this margarita tastes so sublime

double shot of tequila with an extra lime

counting every blessing i've been handed

i found the key to happiness

is always thanking god for all of this

and never taking anything for granted

so alright already come down from the ledge

everybody's gonna meet at the water's edge

where the sun's always shinin'

livin' on island time

livin' on island time

we're chillin' out feelin' alright

it's a gorgeous day in paradise

here on the island

we always have a real good time

and it's never too early for a glass of wine

livin' on island time

hey

got salt in the air and sand in my hair

not a care in the world

except for where i'm gonna spend my day with you

sittin' in the sand with a drink in my hand

nothin' else to do but work on my tan

and hang with my friends while we drift into the blue

so alright already come down from the ledge

eveybody's gonna party at the water's edge

where everything is fine

we always have a real good time

where it's never too early for a glass of wine

livin' on island time

hey livin' on island time
