The A-Sides A Florida Grove lyrics

So, Dianne, you've paid your debt
To society, I guess
New Jersey's got no place for me
With all the other fishes in the deep blue sea

Grab your plants and violin
Leave the rest in Hoboken
'Cause once we hit the Sunshine State
Our next destination is the Pearly Gates

We'll wake on a peninsula where we can see
From sea to shining sea
A Florida grove, a Florida grove
Down, down the map we dove

Welcome to the life of ease
Lying underneath orange trees
No one that we know is there
Just me, you and Andy Warhol's hair


It's like a color film we're in
You've always been my heroine
The coast is clear and calm
Stand against the backdrop of the sea and palms

The moon divides the tides
As we lose track of our hands
Beneath the sinking sand
A Florida grove, a Florida grove

Down, down the map we go
I've never heard of a hurricane
And you know I don't know
Nothing 'bout a tidal wave
When the winter comes again
We'll be warm until the end
