lyrics
My honey pie and I paid a man to leave us stranded on an island
And with rope and stuff we found, lyin’ all over the ground, we made our home
She’s all that I desire, finding driftwood for the fire on our island
We got nothin’ but our love and the starry sky above the fire flame
Oh it’s a perfect day
I see somethin’ that I like in a rusted up old bike that’s bound for landfill
And I spend a lot of time bringing back a bit of shine from yesterday
Now I can get from A to B, and it’s absolutely free yes I’m gone
And I’m rollin’ out the door, headed for the record store with my babe
Oh it’s a perfect day
I got a stack of old LP’s that my mother gave to me back in Rhode Island
Now there’s Crosby, Stills & Nash, JJ Cale and Johnny Cash in my home
I lay down on the ground and as the record spins around I’m gone!
Now I got music in my ears, sippin’ on a home brew beer in the shade
Oh it’s a perfect day!
And with rope and stuff we found, lyin’ all over the ground, we made our home
She’s all that I desire, finding driftwood for the fire on our island
We got nothin’ but our love and the starry sky above the fire flame
Oh it’s a perfect day
I see somethin’ that I like in a rusted up old bike that’s bound for landfill
And I spend a lot of time bringing back a bit of shine from yesterday
Now I can get from A to B, and it’s absolutely free yes I’m gone
And I’m rollin’ out the door, headed for the record store with my babe
Oh it’s a perfect day
I got a stack of old LP’s that my mother gave to me back in Rhode Island
Now there’s Crosby, Stills & Nash, JJ Cale and Johnny Cash in my home
I lay down on the ground and as the record spins around I’m gone!
Now I got music in my ears, sippin’ on a home brew beer in the shade
Oh it’s a perfect day!

about
Halfway to Forth Adelaide, Australia

Brothers Dan & Kyle deliver tight vocal harmonies, banjo driven ballads & toe tapping grooves for all ages. They take their name from the location of their family home, nestled in the hills, surrounded by rich farmland just outside of Devonport on the North coast of Tasmania. ... more
