about

Instead of going home for the summer like I usually did (my parents had by this time moved to Florida), I decided to stay at BYU and go to summer term.

lyrics

Like to go home to Florida,
On the beach with the swaying trees,
Let the sun shine down on me,
Run from pretty ladies in bikinis.

Here in Utah they've got no beach;
They've got the sand but it's a long way to the sea--
But oh, their women,
They smile with their long dresses on,
And I fall in love.

Nothing's better than Florida,
On the beach when the sun goes down,
Watch the moon move behind a cloud,
Light the ocean and sparkle in the sea.

So I'm not coming to Florida--
Say hello to my Dad for me,
Tell my Mother I still love her;
If they want to spend the money,
They can come see me.
