Lyrics
My portfolio is high I’m going on vacation Anywhere I wanna, put it on my card I could use a little sun, and to see some ancient ruins The pyramids are calling, off to Egypt I will fly CHORUS: I go swimming in the big Egyptian river Bathing in the waters of de Nile The sun is shining down, and everybody’s happy Bathing in the waters of de Nile My job is so secure and my government is stable The weather’s getting better, a little warmer every year And now we’ve got free trade, and everyone will prosper The locals here are happy, I think I’ll have another beer I thought I heard a bomb, it must be a celebration If anything was wrong, they’d tell me on TV Sometimes I am amazed how perfect things are going I think I’ll do some shopping, and take a little time for me By Dana Lyons, copyright 1997
