Dave Matthews Band

    “Tripping Billies”

    “We’re wearing nothing
    Nothing but our shadows
    Shadows falling down on the beach sand
    Remembering once,
    Out on the beaches we wore
    Pineapple grass bracelets

    So why would you care
    To get out of this place
    You and me and all our friends
    Such a happy human race

    ‘Cause we’re Tripping Billies

    We are all sitting
    Legs crossed round a fire
    My yellow flame she dances
    Tequila drinking, oh, our
    Minds will wander
    To wondrous places

    So why would you care
    To get out of this place
    You and me and all our friends
    Such a happy human race

    Eat, drink, and be merry
    For tomorrow we die
    Eat, drink, and be merry
    For tomorrow we die”
