She was born in Dakota

Where she froze to death
each winter
But she dreamed about
the islands

By the fire
burning splinters
It was almost Jamaica
Almost paradise

It was almost Jamaica

It was almost real nice.
So she moved down
on the border

with the sunshine
but no sea breeze
Though she could not
drink the water
Some of the streets

were lined with
palm trees
It was almost Jamaica
Almost paradise

It was almost Jamaica

It was almost real nice.
Electric fan
on the table

Shower is her
waterfall
She may never have
Jamaica

But in her mind
she has it all.
It was almost Jamaica
Almost paradise

It was almost Jamaica

It was almost real nice.
She loved their hurricane
warnings

And the tropical
breeze
She loves coconuts

and love songs
With a little reggae please.
It was almost Jamaica
Almost paradise

It was almost Jamaica

It was almost real nice.
Almost Jamaica
Almost paradise

It was almost Jamaica
It was almost real nice.
It was almost Jamaica
Almost paradise

It was almost Jamaica

It was almost real nice.
