Lyrics and translation
Original
There ain't no crying in a beach bar.
That's why I'm sitting here tonight.
I took a wrong turn in the real world, so I'm hiding out in paradise.
And don't blow my cover, just pour me another in the warm Southern
Hemisphere. Round here, only thing dark is the rum.
Only thing sinking's the sun going down by the pier.
I'm like a boat in a bottle with every last swallow.
Drift away to a place where there ain't no broken hearts.
The vibe so breezy, it makes it so easy to forget who you are for a while.
Ain't no crying in a beach bar.
Maybe I'm living in denial, but you sure can't beat the view.
Yeah, it's all coconuts and key limes, and no sign of you-know-who.
It's a real life saver getting drunk as a sailor. Let my feet hang off the edge of the world.
I'm like a boat in a bottle with every last swallow.
Drift away to a place where there ain't no broken hearts.
The vibe so breezy, it makes it so easy to forget who you are for a while. Ain't no crying in a beach bar.
Ain't no crying in a beach bar.
Yeah, there's a time and place for teardrops, but I can't see it from right here. I'm like a boat in a bottle with every last swallow.
Drift away to a place where there ain't no broken hearts.
The vibe so breezy, it makes it so easy to forget who you are for a while.
Ain't no crying in a beach bar.
Ain't no crying in a beach bar.
Ain't no crying in a beach bar.
