Florida By The Sea

Florida By The Sea
Words and Music by Irving Berlin
©1925, Irving Berlin Inc.

Down in the land of the cocoanuts,
Before the welcome season shuts,
a million "million-dollar nuts" will be found.
Down in the land where the trees are tall,
We're asking you to pay a call
and live where it is summer all the year round.

Buy a lot
Any piece that we've got
Will increase ev'ry season.
Ask us why
Ev'ry one wants to lie
In the sun; there's a reason.

One little ride in a Pullman car
A night and day and there you are.
Come on it's time you should be Florida bound.

Chorus

In the lovely land of Florida
Sunny Florida by the sea.
All the sunshine in America
Is in Florida, you'll agree.
When they're freezing up north,
Sneezing up north,
Always it's July the Fourth
In the lovely land of Florida,
Sunny Florida, by the sea.

(repeat chorus)
