A Seagull cry, a child laugh.
An old man orders a drink
Its been ten years since he got here
And it hurts to think
That years ago at this beach side bar
A woman held his hand
And he lost his chance for true romance of south padre island
The womans name was mary ann
Gary loved her so
He said be my wife for the rest of your life
She said no
Gary was from indiana
All his life a teaveling man
He had a dog and boat and he would float
And fish around this old island
And he is stuck in wanna wanna
At the beach front bar
Sippin on coke and rum
The tide rolls in and his dreams die out.
He is waiting on a love that wont come
Na true love that never will come
Years ago in california gary loved a girl named sue
She and theree more wifes rold him lies when rhey said i do
And this last one took the miney and rhe things gary cared about
She took the dog and the boat
So he cant float
Cause ahe walked out
Now he is stuck in wanna wanna
At a beach fromt bar
Sippin on cke and rum
The tide rolls in and his dreams die out
