Dent may & his magnificent ukulele - 26 Miles (Santa Catalina) lyrics

26 MIles cross the sea Santa Catalina is a-waintin' for me Santa Catalina, the island of romance Romance, romance, romance Water all around it, everywhere Tropical trees and salty air But for me the thing that's a-waitin' there Romance It seems so distant, 26 MIles away Restin' in the water serene I'd work for anyone, even the Navy Who would float me to my island dream 26 Miles, so near, yet far I's swim with just some water-wings and my guitar I could leave the wings, but I'll need the guitar For romance, romance, romance, romance 26 Miles across the sea Santa Catalina is a-waitin' for me Santa Catalina, the island of romance A tropical heaven out in the ocean Covered with trees and girls If I have to swim, I'll do it forever Til I'm gazin' on those island pearls Forty Kilometers is a leacky old boat Any old thing that I'll stay afloat When we arrive we'll all promote romance Romance, romance, romance 26 MIles cross the sea Santa Catalina is a-waintin' for me Santa Catalina, the island of romance Romance, romance, romance 26 Miles across the sea Santa Catalina is a-waitin' for me Santa Catalina, the island of romance
