Margaritaville Lyrics

(Alan)
Nibblin' on sponge cake, watchin' the sun bake
All of those tourists covered in oil
Strummin' my six-string, on my front porch swing
Smell those shrimp, hey, they're beginnin' to boil
Wasted away again in Margaritaville
Searching for my lost shaker of salt
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
But I know it's nobody's fault

I don't know the reason, I stayed here all season
Nothin' to show but this brand new tattoo
But it's a real beauty, a Mexican cutie
How it got here I haven't a clue
Wasted away again in Margaritaville
Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
Now I think, must be Buffett's fault

-- Instrumental --

(Jimmy)
I blew out my flip-flop, stepped on a pop-top
Broke my leg twice I had to limp on back home
But there's booze in the blender, and soon it will render
That frozen concoction that helps me hang on
Hang on
Wasted away again in Margaritaville
Searching for my lost shaker of salt
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
But I know this is all Alan's fault

(Alan & Jimmy)
Yes and some people claim that there's a woman to blame
But I know it's our own d*** fault
