Rum Punch Parade

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Suitcase rolling, sun on my face Boarding the boat at a rubbery pace Captain grins, says, “Pick your seat” I got a lime drink and a moving beat Palm trees wave from the harbor side I’m on the deck with a spread-out stride Shoes in my bag, let the worries float Tonight we’re dancing on a floating boat [Pre-Chorus] Ooh, the water shining blue Ooh, I’m drifting into you Give me that breeze, give me that view I came for joy and I found it too [Chorus] Cruise ship, cruise ship, roll me through (rum punch parade) Cruise ship, cruise ship, sky so blue (rum punch parade) Spin me ’round the dancing deck This joy keeps moving, what do you expect? Cruise ship, cruise ship, roll me through (rum punch parade) [Verse 2] Lemon on ice and a little hot sauce Somebody laughing by the shuffleboard cross Steel drums ringing from the poolside bar I met a couple from Trinidad We toasted breadfruit, mango, pie Moon on the rail and a slow low sky Every port got a story to tell Every step felt like a seashell spell [Pre-Chorus] Ooh, the water shining blue Ooh, I’m drifting into you Give me that breeze, give me that view I came for joy and I found it too [Chorus] Cruise ship, cruise ship, roll me through (rum punch parade) Cruise ship, cruise ship, sky so blue (rum punch parade) Spin me ’round the dancing deck This joy keeps moving, what do you expect? Cruise ship, cruise ship, roll me through (rum punch parade) [Bridge] When the morning comes, I’ll still be swayin’ Sand on my mind and the band still playin’ One more wave, one more cheer Hold that feeling, bring it here [Final Chorus] Cruise ship, cruise ship, roll me through (rum punch parade) Cruise ship, cruise ship, sky so blue (rum punch parade) Spin me ’round the dancing deck This joy keeps moving, what do you expect? Cruise ship, cruise ship, roll me through (rum punch parade)
