[Title]
Island Brim & Ocean Wind
[Verse 1]
Sun burn morning in the Florida Keys
Salt in my beard, palm tree breeze
Roy in the water, hooves in foam
Big draft king feelin’ right at home
Hat brim low but my heart wide open
Harmonica grinnin’, no words spoken
Boots off now, toes in sand
Let the tide roll through this southern man
[Pre-Chorus]
No rush clock, no whistle blowin’
Just slow waves and the trade winds flowin’
[Chorus]
Island brim and ocean wind
Let the rhythm rock me back again
From the Keys to the Cali line
Just let that reggae sunshine
Hooves in the surf, board in my hand
Roy stand tall like he owns this sand
From warm blue tide to northern rain
Still that same Gulf Coast vein
[Verse 2]
California sunset, gold and red
Off-beat guitar where the longboard led
Roy on the shoreline cool and still
Pacific roll got a different feel
Bonfire glow and a back porch sway
Southern voice on a reggae play
No island slang, just country tone
Ocean rhythm but it’s still my home
[Bridge]
Seattle gray but the water gleams
Mount Rainier in the harbor dreams
Ferries glide in a quiet line
City lights on that Puget shine
Different coast, different air
But peace still sittin’ everywhere
From coral reef to evergreen
Same laid-back cowboy in between
[Chorus]
Island brim and ocean wind
Let the rhythm rock me back again
From the Keys to the Cali line
Just let that reggae sunshine
From surf spray south to Sound up north
Hooves and waves just movin’ forth
No matter where that water bend
I ride it slow ‘til the very end
[Outro]
Harmonica easy, soft and bright
Bass roll smooth into the night
Roy breath slow by the rolling tide
Just coast to coast on an ocean ride
