A nice reggae , caribbean feel to it. About a guy that cruises the shores and knows everything about everybody, or so he thinks.
lyrics
I step off the boat and pay the smiling man
Shuffling my feet in the soft Caribbean sand
The vision that I see slurping a shaved ice treat
is hammock hanging harry, cycling up the street
He's a legend in these parts they say he even knows the prez
Rides around with a crazy parrot that repeats whatever he says
He'll stroll the waters edge till the angle of the suns just right
takes one shot 2 shots and slumbers into the night
chorus " He wears no shirt and he got no shoes
but he still gets serviced just fine
cocooned in the shade and shooting the breeze
he tips back some fine rose wine
bridge anything that you want ? need someplace to go?
you just call out loud and harry knows
the bullshit served with a big white smile
" no boats out on sunday" watch harry go!
If the truth be told he'd rather rest his soul
with the sweet smell of ganja zen
and count the days flying by and hear the seabirds cry
as the brilliant sun come back up again
