intro:
avias
get away (2x's) drag get aways
verse1:
dont sit up here and play like yall dont know what time it is
grab a towel, bathing suits, lets take it for a spin
life too short, to sit around
timeshares, tropic spas, lets put it down
lets go to the beach, get somthing to eat
break that cycle in your life thats continuous repeat
i want to stand on the shore and enjoy the smell
digging in the sand, finding a seashell
chorus: (4x's)
lets just get a-way
because a whole world awaits
its a sunny day and its time to play
bridge
get away (4x's)
verse2:
yo, now we at the beach, im feeling so good
im doing stuff that i never thought that i could
jumping off a cliff, into blue springs
now i realize the true meaning of things
the world is so big and stress is so small
grab my luggage im bout to have a ball
from mexico to the eastern border
the coastline is beautiful, especially in florida
i just want to have fun and live my life
clap, clap, we party all night
everybody showing love and the place is filled
i can picture myself in sunflower fields
exploring the mysterious like mermaids
better yet we can boat in the everglades
life is one big adventure and im looking for more
after all you never know what life have in store
bridge
get away (2x's)
chorus: (4x's)
lets just get a-way
because a whole world awaits
its a sunny day and its time to play
