Somebody asked me if they thought I could be
Happy living all my days down in Belize and I thought why not
I always like it hot
So I started listing reasons why I like it there
Sunny days of fishing in the salty air
And the stars at night
There ain't no ambient light
The good life gives you what you need
And I believe happiness sure counts a lot
They say successful men get what they want
Happy men want just what they got And
the good life for me comes naturally
down in Belize
Yeah,
the island where we live is small and intertwined
They got their own pace,
they call it island time
When they say right away
They just may not mean today
They say what's your hurry, man, don't worry
Don't you know San Pedro days go slow
The island life will get to you Pretty
soon set you down into a slower mode
That's when all your tensions go
I said motor,
dresses,
flip-flops and an old t-shirt
Cut-off straw hat,
sunglasses won't hurt Cause it's a sunny day
I always like it that way People are all friendly,
whoa,
they love themselves
When they get into trouble they help each other out
It's the Christian way I always like it that way
Yeah,
the good life gives you what you need
And I believe happiness sure counts a lot
Successful men get what they want Happy men want
just what they got
And the good life for me comes naturally down in Belize
