Lyrics
Down in some tropical someplace
Picture a quaint rendezvous
With two of the darlingest people
At a table for two
Chorus
Over a bottle of wine
Under a tropical sky
A typical, tropical atmosphere
All his heart could hear was a sigh
Over a bottle of wine
Playing the tropical game
A typical, tropical love affair
Oh, the tropic air was to blame
They knew it was foolish
To resist, ay, ay, ay
And so they kissed, ay, ay, ay
Never dreaming of tomorrow
Over a bottle of wine
Living a tropical life
Proving how happy a man could be
When he’s on a spree with his wife
