Good to Go

words and music: Allan Thomas

Caught two real good ones
From Flatrock through the Bowl then got
Mowed down mopped up stuck in the rinse cycle
Surfboard banged my head thought I'd joined the dead
Coughed up sea foam and H20 instead
But I'm good to go
Yes I'm whoa I'm good to go

Thought I'd windsurf at the YMCA
Sea was angry windblown spray
My rig tried to take flight before I reached the launching zone
Nearly sliced my ankle bone
But I'm good to go - yes I
Oh I'm good to go

Sailboarding overpowered everything on the line
Having to jump ten-foot faces time after time
Couldn't keep my board in the water
Survival was the goal
Would scare the pants off any mortal soul
But I'm good to go yes I soldier on
I'm good to go

At some point we have to make our way back to shore
But you can't resist the urge to take it one step more
Oh yeah

Six bandaids later and a contusion or two
But I'll bounce back tomorrow and start anew
Let's head home baby get some ice on my heel
Give it a little rest and see what's the deal
I'll be good to go yes I
I'm good to go

When you play with a tigress beware of its claw
It act real coy then it's shock and awe
Like a razor sharp reef or getting raked over the coals
Gonna pay with a pounding that's the way I rolls
I'm good to go - Yes I whoa I good to go
Soldier on good to go

At some point we have to make our way back to shore
Can't resist the urge to step it up one notch more
Oh yeah

Good to go
Ooh I'm good to go
Soldier on good to go
Good to go
Soldier on good to go
