Paper Umbrellas

I ducked in that little tiki bar

Thinkin' I'd ride out the storm

She was spinnin' pink and yellow paper umbrellas

And holdin' up her hand to have one more

I stood and watched her sippin', cryin'

Flippin' through old pictures on her phone

I said, hey, is this seat taken?

I sure hate for you to have to drink alone

She cracked a smile, said, sit here if you want

I said, I don't mean to pry, but girl you're doin' this all wrong

It's gonna take a lot of piña coladas

If you're gonna drink him off your mind

I'll sit here a little longer

And get us somethin' stronger

Somethin' that'll work in half the time

Cause when love don't shine like you thought it would

Ain't nothin' quite like good tequila straight

To chase the clouds away

Yeah, girl, I'm here to tell ya

Paper umbrellas look good on top

But they won't stop the rain

She dropped her straw back in that hourglass

And said, I guess it's worth a shot

I said, lightnin', it don't mix with

Any kind of fishin'

So, girl, I'm guessin' time is all I've got

But tonight you need a friend and nothin' more

I know what helps a heart to heal, girl

I've been there before

It's gonna take a lot of piña coladas

If you're gonna drink him off your mind

I'll sit here a little longer

And get us somethin' stronger

Somethin' that'll work in half the time

Cause when love don't shine like you thought it would

Ain't nothin' quite like good tequila straight

To chase the clouds away

Yeah, girl, I'm here to tell ya

Paper umbrellas look good on top

But they won't stop the rain

Yeah, when love don't shine like you thought it would

Ain't nothin' quite like good tequila straight

To chase the clouds away

Yeah, all them pink and yellow paper umbrellas

Look good on top

But they won't stop the rain
