Текст песни: Jimmy Buffett. Why The Things We Do.

In an old house down by the beach
Lives an old man who's just out of reach
Oh oh, he's got nothing to lose

Some say he's a crazy old man
A refugee from a rock and roll band
Oh oh, he's still playing the blues

In the morning when you rise
Aren't you glad to be alive
Oh oh, put on your barefoot shoes

When you dance beneath the moon rainbow
Can't you feel the afterglow
Oh oh, why the things we do

Why the things we do
Why the things we do

In the driftwood house you learn how to dream
Truth is stranger than fishing it seems
Oh oh, there's no earthly rules

And the people come just to hear him say
Life's too short to live your way
Oh oh, who's really fooling who

Invisible means are the key to support
Makes you the king in your own court
Oh oh, what have you got to lose

Push the sadness from your heart
There's no living after dark
Oh oh, why the things we do

Why the things we do
Why the things we
Why the things we do

Why the things we do
Why the things we do
Why the things we do

In the morning when you rise
Aren't you glad to be alive
Oh oh, put on your barefoot shoes

When you dance beneath the moon rainbow
Can't you feel the afterglow
Oh oh, that's why the things we do

That's why the things we do
That's why the things we do
That's why the things we do
