Jamaica (feat. YT Manderellli)

about

Jamaica is a metaphor for breaking the chains that are holding you back from pursuing your passion in life, whatever that might be. That huge thing you've been meaning to do? No more excuses.

lyrics

Glory Days story told
Tell it again never gets old
Puppet show you the lead
Let it go what you need
hook and line kitchen sink
Next plane out foo foo drink
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Fairest land of them all

Notices gather on the door
Mailbox can’t hold no more
No one home garage empty
So come on down where you’ll find me

Jamaica! That’s where I want to be!
Jamaica! The place for you and me!
Jamaica! That’s where I wanna go!
Jamaica! Don’t even wanna know!

Notices gather on the door
Mailbox can’t hold no more
No one’s home garage empty
So come on down where you’ll find me

Groundhog day conference call
Change a clothes bathroom stall
Distant hum ocean shell
Ring your ear like a rebel yell
Another dollar another day
One-way ticket to sweet reggae
Get up stand up run don't walk
Action time no more talk

Notices gather on the door
Mailbox can’t hold no more
No one’s home garage empty
So come on down where you’ll find me

Jamaica! That’s where I want to be!
Jamaica! The place for you and me!
Jamaica! That’s where I wanna go!
Jamaica! Don’t even wanna know!

The rhythm is tight so expedite
When I can see the daylight I can say goodnight
Yeah that's right - when I can see daylight
I can say good night

about

JRtheBand

Quick note about what you're hearing. I wrote all lyrics & play all the instruments on the tracks, except drums. I almost always compose songs first on the acoustic guitar. While my primary influence is classic rock, it might be hard to peg my music to a single genre as my influences range from grunge to blues to country/bluegrass to folk to reggae. You will hear a little of all of it in my music. ... more
