“Dreamers and Pirates” is a postcard in a song—sun-soaked, breezy, and made for anyone who’s ever wanted to trade the grind for the tide.

From mango-tree coastlines to the magic of Jost Van Dyke at dawn, this track bottles up the island spirit and sends it home in a melody you can raise a glass to. With its mix of laid-back rhythms and sing-along hooks, it’s a reminder that freedom isn’t found on a timesheet—it’s found on the water.

Equal parts anthem and escape hatch, "Dreamers and Pirates" tips its hat to the barefoot soul of Kenny Chesney, the salt-air anthems of Zac Brown Band, and the island legacy of Jimmy Buffett. This is a song for drifters, romantics, and Parrot Heads alike—an invitation to love harder, live freer, and toast the dreamer and pirate in us all.

Lyrics

Well I locked up the house and I left this town
Jumped on a plane and headed South
South to the islands where time moves slow and steady
Steady like the sinking sun on that salty sea
Or the crash of the waves under Mango trees
Like a song that was written for the pirate deep down in you and me

Now I feel just like a pirate
On the sea I just want to run
Leave behind life's silly troubles
Hoist my sails toward that setting sun
And I feel just like a dreamer
On Jost Van Dyke at dawn
Trying to bottle up all this magic
Send to you in this simple song
So raise your glass tonight to those dreamers and pirates in us all

You see there's more to life than a nine to five
Climbing ladders, just getting by
There's a world that's waiting on the other side if you take it
Where a little burn on that sun kissed skin
Is just what you need to fit right in
Find an island girl that will show you just what you're missing

Now we're free just like two pirates
On the sea we just want to run
Leave behind life's silly troubles
Hoist our sails toward that setting sun
And now we're free just like two dreamers
On Jost Van Dyke at dawn
Getting lost in all this magic
As I sing to you that Chesney song
So raise our glasses tonight to those dreamers and pirates in us all

One day the tide's gonna carry us home
Till then this ocean's the only truth we've known
So we raise our glass, let the night roll on
Cause tomorrow's not promised, but right now we belong

Now we're free just like two pirates
On the sea we just want to run
Leave behind life's silly troubles
Hoist our sails toward that setting sun
And now we're free just like two dreamers
On Jost Van Dyke at dawn
Getting lost in all this magic
As I sing to you a Buffett song
So raise our glasses tonight to those dreamers and pirates in us all

Let's raise our glasses tonight to those dreamers and pirates in us all

Here's to those Parrot Heads in us all

Cheers to you Jimmy
