1
I've seen the city and I took the next flight for Borneo
2
They say it's pretty, I like the t-shirts in Borneo
3
Some wear Bob Marley others in Playboy or Duvalier
4
Make the last plane come, let me rise through the cloudy above
5
With a book on Borneo
6
Strangers come and go, it's such a waste of time
7
Problems far behind, another day
8
But even in springtime it's a rich slice of life
9
So send me a letter, I'll reply with a broken spear
10
That dusky mulatto in nylons and tattoos
11
Hot juice in coke bottles, we dance in the sand
12
Well, they twirl and they tumble
13
Yes, they twirl and they tumble
14
Well, I'll twirl and I'll tumble
15
I've been to Leon's, he's got nine daughters and a stereo
16
They say that Leon watches from the tree tops in Borneo

When the road is mud everything stops with a thud

That's the way it goes way down yonder in Borneo
19
Far beneath his mansion, there's an open drain
20
Sending all the sewage down the hill
21
But when the general shows movies, no one hesitates
22
To sneak from the jungle, they laugh and they mumble
23
Enjoying the show and that dusky mulatto
24
Hot juice in coke bottles, in blue jeans and tattoos
25
Well, they twirl and they tumble
26
Yes, they twirl and they tumble
27
Well, I'll twirl and I'll tumble
28
I like the free world, they say it's pretty
29
This time of year they tumble and twirl
30
They tumble and twirl, I'll tumble and twirl
31
They twirl and they tumble, they twirl and they tumble
32
I like the free world, I like the free world
33
They say it's pretty this time of year
34
This time of year, tumble and tumble
35
I like the free world
