Story behind the song
I grew up in South Florida and have a continuing love affair with the Keys (rewritten since the original version in 2012)
Lyrics
Islamorada Words and Music by Ron Tintner, ASCAP ©2018 I grew up in Islamorada Livin’ the island life Days at the beach, fishin' the reefs Sleepin’ in a hammock at night When I got older, my friends moved away To find real jobs, that paid real pay But I couldn't do it, I somehow scraped through And here on this island I stayed CHORUS: 200 miles from Cuba Sittin’ at the top of the Keys The warm blue waters of Islamorada Will always be home to me Barnacle Joe’s finally closed Where we used to go for bait and gear And the Ice Cream Shack down near Pelican Cove Got bought out late last year The beaches are covered with people all day, ‘Less a hurricane comes, and scares ‘em away But there’s still a few places nobody knows For me to escape CHORUS INST BREAK BRIDGE: After so many years and tourists Things are bound to change a bit But the island vibe is still alive And I’ll never get tired of it CHORUS Tag: Yes, the warm blue waters of Islamorada Will always be home to me
