George Strait – Ocean Front Property Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you leave me, I won’t miss you
And I won’t ever take you back
Girl, your memory won’t ever haunt me
Cause I don’t love you, and now if you’ll buy that
[Chorus]
I got some ocean front property in Arizona
From my front porch you can see the sea
I got some ocean front property in Arizona
If you’ll buy that, I’ll throw the golden gate in free
[Verse 2]
I don’t worship the ground you walk on
I never have and that’s a fact
I won’t follow or try to find you
Cause I don’t love you, and now if you’ll buy that
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Yeah, if you’ll buy that I’ll throw the golden gate in free
