VENEZUELA

my best friend's in venezuela / and he sent
me a letter and a photograph / well i miss
him so you know / his letters always make
me laugh

well he's down there in the southern sun /
where the ocean waves roll blue / walking
barefoot in the sand / you know that's some-
thing we always liked to do / and i believe /
i'll go to venezuela too

well he tells me that he's happy there / and
he doesn't really know how long he's gonna
stay / there's a gentle breeze every morning
that can blow your troubles away

i know he's searching for his peace of mind /
and a place where the pace is slow / i only
wish i was there to share just making it a
two man show / and i believe / i'm really
bound to go

oh venezuela / i can see him in the evening
dancing neath the moonlit sky / oh vene-
zuela / you take good care of that friend
of mine he's rambling blind / you treat him
kind / he's looking for his wings to fly

my best friend's in venezuela / and he sent
me a letter and a photograph / well i miss
him so you know / his letters always make
me laugh

we've gone our separate ways to see the
world / but i can still hear him say / you go
north and randy i'll go south / and i'll meet
you for a song in l.a. / and i believe / oh i
believe / i'm gonna meet the boy halfway
