Semi-True Story — Jimmy Buffett

By: mac mcanally

With his head out the sunroof And his heart in the right place Plan b was foolproof He drove off to her place He yelled out his feelings Among other stuff It was too much tequila Or not quite enough It was too much tequila Or not quite enough

It's a semi-true story Believe it or not I made up a few things And there's some i forgot But the life and the telling Are both real to me And they all run together And turn out to be A semi-true story

Well the picture is fuzzy And the details are sorted It was on the same day that god's own drunk was recorded A walking tall sheriff and a big cadillac And me and golf shoes on the hood making tracks This daring young singer was under attack

It's a semi-true story Believe it or not I made up a few things And there's some i forgot But the life and the telling Are both real to me And they all run together And turn out to be A semi-true story

Well the things that i've lived And i've dreamed And i've seen And i've heard You'll take the good with the bad And be glad that every word

It's a semi-true story Believe it or not I made up a few things And there's some i forgot But the life and the telling Are both real to me And they run like the rain All the way to the sea Semi-true stories
