Oh, 'til I go down to Bimini,
never get a lickin' 'til I go down to Bimini.
We were all sailors 'til the day
our boat put in to Bimini Bay.
We tapped a keg. We loaded on.
Woke up to find the boat was gone!
Send my bail down to Bimini.
This town is wearisome.
Got thrown in jail just for drinkin'
Barbados rum, Barbados rum
Oh, 'til I go down to Bimini,
never get a lickin 'til I go down to Bimini.
I recollect the other night,
seems like there was a friendly fight.
It was a woman brought me grief.
Her mother was the police chief!
Send my bail down to Bimini.
This town is wearisome.
Got thrown in jail just for drinkin'
Barbados rum, Barbados rum
Oh, 'til I go down to Bimini,
never get a lickin 'til I go down to Bimini.
I told them I would mend my ways.
They let me out in thirty days.
One little sip to quench my thirst,
I should have read the label first!
Send my bail down to Bimini.
This town is wearisome.
Got thrown in jail just for drinkin'
Barbados rum, Barbados rum
Oh, 'til I go down to Bimini,
never get a lickin 'til I go down to Bimini.
They say that Bimini can't afford
to keep providing room and board.
I'm anchored here by ball and chain,
squeezin' the rum from sugar cane.
Send my bail down to Bimini.
This town is wearisome.
Got thrown in jail just for drinkin'
Barbados rum, Barbados rum
Oh, 'til I go down to Bimini,
never get a lickin 'til I go down to Bimini.
