  • Everybody's got a place they go
    When the old battery gets running low
    I'm a sucker for the sand and sea, yea
    If I had my way, hey I'd always be

    Way up high in a coconut tree
    Layin' low, just my baby and me
    Sunny skies as far as I can see
    High up in a coconut tree

    Not to green, not too brown
    I shimmy up and I shake the good ones down
    Coconuts, a couple of bucks a piece
    And you can do alright if you ain't afraid to be

    High in a coconut tree
    Layin' low, just my baby and me
    Sunny skies as far as I can see
    High in a coconut tree

    Yeah, there's less stress and the world's alright
    It's a different point of view
    When you're looking at life

    Way up high in a coconut tree
    (Layin' low) low, just my baby and me
    Sunny skies as far as I can see
    High up in a coconut

    High in a coconut tree
    Layin' low, just my baby and me
    Sunny skies as far as I can see
    High in a coconut tree

    High in a coconut tree
    Layin' low, just my baby and me
    Sunny skies as far as I can see
    High in a coconut tree

    Layin' low, just my baby and me (Sunny skies as far as I can see)
    High in a coconut tree

    Sunny skies as far as I can see
    High up in a coconut tree
    Up here with Willie
    Sunny skies as far as I can see
    Let's get high in a coconut tree Writer/s: Casey Beathard, Michael White, Monty Criswell
