Bimini

B. Olofson & M. McIntyre

Ohhh 'til I go down to Bimini

Never take to liquor 'til I go down to Bimini


We were all sailors 'til the day 

Our boat sailed in to Bimini Bay

We tapped a keg we loaded on 

Woke up to find the boat was gone


Send my bail down to Bimini

This town is wearisome

Got thrown in jail just for drinkin

Barbados rum, Barbados rum

Ohhh 'til I go down to Bimini

Never take to liquor 'til I go down to Bimini


I recollect the other night

It seems there was friendly fight

It was a woman who brought me to grief

Her Daddy was the Police Chief


Send my bail down to Bimini

This town is wearisome

Got thrown in jail just for drinkin

Barbados rum, Barbados rum

Ohhh 'til I go down to Bimini

Never take to liquor 'til I go down to Bimini


I told them I would mend my ways

They let me out in thirty days

I took a little drink to quench my thirst

Guess I should-a read the label first


Send my bail down to Bimini

This town is wearisome

Got thrown in jail just for drinkin

Barbados rum, Barbados rum

Ohhh 'til I go down to Bimini

Never take to liquor 'til I go down to Bimini


They tell me that Bimini can't afford 

to keep providin' room and board

I'm anchored here by ball and chain 

Squeezin' rum from sugar-cane


Send my bail down to Bimini

This town is wearisome

Got thrown in jail just for drinkin

Barbados rum, Barbados rum

Ohhh 'til I go down to Bimini

Never take to liquor 'til I go down to Bimini
