26 Miles (Santa Catalina) sing and play along

Twentysix miles across the sea

Santa Catalina is awaitin' for me,

Santa Catalina, the island of romance,

romance, romance, romance.

Water all around it ev'rywhere, tropical trees and the salty air;

but for me the thing that's awaitin' there's romance.

It seems i so distant, twentysix miles away,

restin' in the water serene.

I'd I work for anyone, even the Navy,

who would float me to my island dream.

Twentysix o miles, ters so a near y yet far.

I'd swim with just some water wings and my guitar.

I can leave the wings but I'll need the guitar for romance,

romance, romance, romance.

Twentysix miles across the sea

Santa Catalina is awaitin' for me,

Santa Catalina, the island of romance,

A trop ical heaven out in the o acean covered with the trees ter and girls.

If I have to swim I'd do it forever till I'm gazin' on those island pearls.

Forty kil ometers in a leak y old boat,

I'd any old some thing ter that'll stay afloat.

When can we arrive we'll I'll all the promote romance,

romance, romance, romance.

tysix miles across the sea

Santa Catalina is awaitin' for me,

Santa Catalina, the island of romance,

A romance, romance, romance.

Romance, romance, romance, romance, romance.
