A                       D    
Southeast Missouri is just no place to be   
                       G   
I think Jamaica in the moonlight   
A                      D   
Sandy beaches drinking rum every night   
D                        G   
We've got no money mamma but we can go   
A                                     D   
We'll split the difference  and go to Coconut grove   
D                          G   
Just keep on talking mamma I can hear   
A                          D   
Your voice it tickles down inside of my ear

Viola an American dream   
A                     D   
We can travel girl without any means   
D                    G
