So you got a little heartbreak
Feeling like a dumb chump
Laying in left field

Can't believe you got dumped
Everything gone wrong
But you're listening to the right song


Grab yourself a cheap seat
Floating or flying

Anything southbound
Heading to the islands
Grab a little white sand

Maybe get your blues tanned

Riptides rippin'

The sunset's dippin'
You smile that smile
Keep on sippin'


Time flies
Sitting in the sun

When you're feeling numb
Time flies
When you're having rum

When you're having rum

Yeah, you find a little beach bar

Down on the water
Sail away the Captain
Feeling Jolly Roger

Talking to a cutie
Heading for the booty


Riptides rippin'
The sunset's dippin'
You smile that smile

You'll be saying

Time flies

Sitting in the sun
Yeah, when you're getting some
Time flies

When you're having rum
When you're having rum


Yeah

Riptides rippin'

The sunset's dippin'
You smile that smile
You'll be saying


Time flies
Yeah, when your in the sun

Yeah, when you're feeling numb
Time flies


Time flies
Sitting in the sun
Yeah, when you're getting some


Time flies
When you're having rum

When you're having rum
When you're getting some
When you're feeling numb
