[Verse 1]
              
I was tired of

          
 my lady,
             
we'd been toge

             
ther too long
             
like a worn ou

             
t recording
            
of a favorite 

       
song

             
So while she l

            
ay there sleep

     
in'
            
I read the pap

           
er in bed
            
and in the per

               
sonal columns
              
there was this

              
 letter I read


[Chorus]
              
If you like pi

            
ña coladas
              
and gettin' ca

           
ught in the ra

     
in
            
if you're not 

           
into yoga
            
if you have ha

           
lf a brain 

            
if you like ma

             
kin' love at m

[Verse 2]
              
I didn't think

             
 about my lady

   
,
              
I know that so

            
unds kind of m

     
ean
            
But me and my 

          
old lady
            
had fallen int

             
o the same old

          
 dull routine

            
So I wrote to 

           
the paper,
            
took out a per

          
sonal ad
            
And though I'm

             
 nobody's poet

    
, 
             
I thought it w

               
asn't half bad


[Chorus]
              
Yes, I like pi

           
ña coladas
              
and getting ca

           
ught in the ra

     
in
            
I'm not much i

             
nto health foo

    
d,
            
I am into cham

I've got to me

             
et you by tomo

       
rrow noon
              
and cut throug

           
h all this red

      
 tape
            
At a bar calle

             
d O'Malley's
            
where we'll pl

[Verse 3]
              
So I waited wi

              
th high hopes
            
and she walked

              
 in the place
            
I knew her smi

             
le in an insta

     
nt,
            
I knew the cur

                
ve of her face

            
It was my own 

             
lovely lady
            
and she said, 

            
"Aw, it's you.

 
"
            
Then we laughe

               
d for a moment
            
and I said, "I

             
 never knew."


[Chorus]
              
That you like

And the feel o

            
f the ocean
            
and the taste
