JIMMY BUFFETT - Lage Nom Ai lyrics

rate me

Nordstrom was a simple man

Who had some non-conformist plan

To save his ass

Every night he danced alone

And blotted out the monotone

That was his past

He packs his bag of mysteries

And leaves the lonely memories

Where they belong

They came and went so easily

This rising tide identity

Sings like a song

Let's sing

Lage Nom Ai Nom Ai

When you know that life is just a game

Lage Nom Ai Nom Ai (Oh!)

He's the man who gave up his own name

In the roll of the cosmic dice

You win one heart and lose it twice

Before you know

Love is fine until you taste

This melancholy bouillabaisse

Called letting go

Lage Nom Ai Nom Ai

When you know that life is just a game

Lage Nom Ai Nom Ai (Hey!)

He's the man who gave up his own name

He moved on up to old Beantown

And summered on the Vineyard Sound

To pass the day (day ay ay oh)

Island hopping Crab Key bound

Tendin' bar he thinks he's found

A better way (ay ay ay oh)

Now we're back where we belong

Without a clue and still without

A master plan (ay ay ay oh)

Incident or accident

It all depends on if you're meant

To understand (ay ay ay oh)

Lage Nom Ai Nom Ai

When you know that life is just a game

Lage Nom Ai Nom Ai

He's the man who gave up his own name

He's the man who gave up his own name

Spoken:

eah, 'ol Nordstrom's gone. Checked out. Readin'

the wrong kind of books...listenin' to that wild

Carribbean music. He wiped himself out of his own computer.

He's the man who gave up his own name. He's gone.

[NOTE: Lage Nom Ai Nom Ai is island patois which loosely translates:

"The man who gave up his own name."]
