Verse 1 Theres a boat race down the river Theres a slow boat on my mind Everybody's going like crazy I'm taking my own sweet time I'll drift down to Big Shark River Take a boat ride along the bay Just trying to find a little peace of mind Down in the Everglades Chorus There ain't gonna be no hurry There ain't gonna be no rush Just a lazy style like a crocodile Playin' in the mangrove brush I'll float on down the river Let the speed boat speed away I'll drift around making gator sounds Down in the Everglades Verse 2 While the big crowd down the rivers Are gettin' drunk on sea grape wine I'm gettin' high watchin' eagles fly Havin' myself a time Wet my whistle every now and then With a sip of cool Gatorade Watch the sun go down and let the world go 'round Down in the Everglades Chorus There ain't gonna be no hurry There ain't gonna be no rush Just a lazy style like a crocodile Playin' in the mangrove brush I'll float on down the river Let the speed boat speed away I'll drift around making gator sounds Down in the Everglades I'll drift around makin' gator sounds Down in the Everglades
