lyrics
I AM A BUDDHA (Walsh)
As I was walking down the beach one day
I spotted an umbrella so I laid down in the shade
The sand was tickling my toe
I really did not really mind which way the wind did blow
CHORUS
I am a Buddha
I am a Buddha
I am a Buddha
I am a Buddha
As I was dancing in the crowd
I saw a lovely beauty laughing out loud
I said hey what are you laughing about?
She looked me in the eye and began to shout
CHORUS
BRIDGE
So we went shopping in the square
I bought a watermelon enough so we could share
My friends at the cantina were dying for refreshment
They cheered when we rode in on the back of an elephant
They said yeah yeah yeah yeah
oh oh oh oh
I I I I
ah ah ah ah
CHORUS
