Banana Republics - Live

I can't tell you how cool this looks from up here
 Looking at all these, feel right now
 So, uh, we going down to the Banana Republic courtesy of Steve Goodman, right now
 ♪
 Down to the Banana Republics
 Down to the tropical sun
 Go the expatriated American
 Hopin' to find some fun
 Some of them go for the sailing
 Called by the allure of the sea
 Tryin' to find what is ailing
 From living in the land of the free
 Some of them are running from lovers
 Leaving no forward address
 Some of them are running tons of ganja
 Some are running from the IRS
 Late at night, you will find them
 In the cheap hotels and bars
 They'll be hustling the señoritas
 While they dance beneath the stars
 Spending those renegade pesos
 On a bottle of rum and a lime
 Singin' give me some words I can dance to
 Or a melody that rhymes
 First you learn the native custom
 Soon a word of Spanish or two
 You know that you cannot trust them
 Because they know they can't trust you
 Expatriated American feelin' so all alone
 Telling themselves the same lies
 That they told themselves back home
 ♪
 Down to the Banana Republics
 Things aren't as warm as they seem
 When none of the natives are buying
 Any second hand American dreams
 Still late at night, you will find them
 In the cheap hotels and bars
 And they'll be hustling the señoritas
 While they dance beneath the stars
 Spending those renegade pesos
 On a bottle of rum and a lime
 Singin' give me some words I can dance to
 Or a melody that rhymes
 Down to the Banana Republics
 Down to the tropical sun
 Go the expatriated Americans
 Hopin' to find some fun

 Thank you, Stephen
