Island Boy Song Lyrics
by Kenny Chesney

KENNY CHESNEY
Be As You Are
Island Boy
He left Maine 'cause he needed a change
And he was desparate to rearrange priorities
And he thought the sea would be the best place to be
So he saved his money, sold his car
And with his eyes set on a Southern star
Got the courage to follow his heart
Set out for a brand new start

ChorusHe's an island boy
Now he's an island boy
Living his life where stress is the enemy
Now he's an island boyA stone's throw from St. Croix
He's finally found his piece of serenity

Now he tends bar at the old Mango
And he sees tourists come and go
With their pressed pants and camera case
Too much sun burned on their face
Now he watches the snow on CNN
[ Kenny Chesney Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
With all of his dope-smokin' friends
Just look at the hell they must be in
Swears he won't go back again

Repeat Chorus

You know the love of his life has always been Emily
She loves the man she sees
In her island by
Now he's and island boy
Living his life where stress is the enemy
Now he's an island boy
A stone's throw from St. Croix
He's finally found his piece of serenity

Island boy
A stone's throw from St. Croix
Island boy
Island boy
Island boy
