Anyone familiar with a little known country singer name Kenny Chesney?
Here's the lyrics to one of his popular songs.
"Somewhere In The Sun"
Stuck here at a Holiday Inn near Austin, Texas
Seen all the road that I want to see
God I hate the snow, they even cancelled the show
Makes me long for where I really want to be
Oh I wish I was there tonight on Jost Van Dyke
Sipping on some Foxy's Firewater rum
Or kickin' back with Ivan
With all my friends down in the islands
Wouldn't take much for me to up and run
To another life somewhere in the sun
Got cold fajitas and only one channel on the TV
Andy and Barney on Nick at Nite
Seen an ad for Mexico, God I really want to go
Anywhere out of mind and out of sight
Oh I wish I was there tonight on Jost Van Dyke
Sipping on some Foxy's Firewater rum
Or kickin' back with Ivan
With all my friends down in the islands
Wouldn't take much for me to up and run
To another life somewhere in the sun
Here's a toast to you on the coast and the sailors out at sea
Drink your ales, hoist your sails
Ride the winds and think of me, 'cause
Oh I wish I was there tonight on Jost Van Dyke
Sipping on some Foxy's Firewater rum
Or kickin' back with Ivan
With all my friends down in the islands
Wouldn't take much for me to up and run
To another life somewhere in the sun
Somewhere in the sun
Well, it seems that the
"Ivan" mentioned in the song owns several businesses on Jost Van Dyke island.
Ivan's Stress Free Bar, Ivan's Stress Free Guest House, & White Bay Campground.
My boss at the sign shop takes yearly trips down to the Virgin Islands and has become friends with a lot of the same folks that Kenny & Ivan are friends with. Thursday, "Ivan" calls the shop and says that someone gave him our number and that he needed some advertising material designed.
To which, my boss hands the phone to me.
So... yours truely has now been hired to design brochures and business cards for all three of his businesses!!
Just wild to be connected obscurely to someone famous!!
Maybe it'll work into a free trip to the islands if I'm able to impress them enough!! LOL
I WISH!!
D-man
