I'm a Freshman in high school in a little town in southern Illinois. Imagine my surprise when i found another die-hard parrot head in my high school! we're everywhere!!! by the way, I give this 2 fins up, Jimmy :) Parrot Heads 4ever!
We missed u in Queensland Australia Jimmy,i hope your fall in sydney hasnt slowed down. p.s this pirate now has a beautiful baby girl named Miami.....oh and i put the piss away......bahahaha...only a parrothead would understand..........
Captain Tony was very real...he bought the original Sloppy Joe's bar just off Duval Street in Key West and served two terms as mayor of that venerable town.
He had I think seven wives and 35 children. I spent the day with him at the bar once and was regaled by some amazing tales. From all accounts most are true....rum and gun running between Havana and the Keys are well documented.
Don't ask me why, but this song makes me want to play the stock market successfully, move to the bayou, wrestle alligators, hunt wld boar with my bowie knife, spend my evenings in the French Quarter with the ladies of the night, while drinking my rum straight from a trough. I'm a lizard person.
I would much rather live and die happy than die and live miserably. We all get one shot, why should we not make it a good one? That's why we follow the "the dancing life" Thanks for the comment Herd! :-)
We miss you Tony...thanks for the free beer...you lived an incredible life and Jimmy gave you props in this song. Key West is a strange and wondrous place.

All you had to do was go by his bar. He was there almost everytime I stopped by (a few times a year).
RIP Capt. Tony

I crossed the bridge on the river Kwai
I stood next to the lion head in Singapore
I climbed a pyramid in Egypt
I floated down the canals of Venice
I played a part in ending the Cold War
I helped liberate a country from tyranny
Yes, I took the first class boat to China
And Jimmy there's still so much to be done

There is a glitch in the video at about time index 3:15. It makes it less enjoyable.
