Lyrics
[Chorus]
I'm going MIA
Down in MIA
Take that A1A to where the palm trees sway
My little hideaway
Hello land of Corona
White beaches, Florida fauna
I'm heading out today
I'm going MIA down in MIA
[Verse 1]
I'm sick and tired of staring at
These four gray walls staring back at me
To tell the truth, I'm about to come unglued
Trying to find a piece of happy
So, I threw a dart at a map
Told the blues, "Take that, I'm leaving"
I found a place in FLA
With one of every single thing I've been needin'
[Chorus]
I'm going MIA
Down in MIA
Take that A1A to where the palm trees sway
With a little hideaway
Hello land of Corona
White beaches, Florida fauna
I'm heading out today
I'm going MIA down in MIA
[Verse 2]
I can see me now laying out on a beach chair
With a cooler full of totties, oh yeah
Staring through my Ray-Bans
At the white sand, water colored painted bodies
One by one, I work my way to Heaven's gate
Soaking up that fuzzy feeling
Now you can't tell me what I picture in my head
Ain't just what I've been needin'
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
I'm going MIA
Down in MIA
Take that A1A to where the palm trees sway
My little hideaway
Hello land of Corona
White beaches, Florida fauna
I'm heading out today
I'm going MIA down in MIA
[Outro]
I'm heading out today
I'm going MIA down in MIA
