Margaritaville Lyrics
By Jimmy Buffett

Welcome to this Margaritaville Lyrics page where below you'll find the song lyrics and my full version acoustic demo.

This song was recorded back in 1977 and was featured on the Changes In Latitudes album. It became Buffets highest charting single at #8. And after licencing many products after the name, Margaritaville and Jimmy Buffett go together like French Fries and Ketchup or Bsaeball and Hot Dogs.

--- Start Of Margaritaville Lyrics ---

Nibblin on sponge cake ... watchin the sun bake
All of those tourists covered with oil
Strummin my six-string ... on my front porch swing
Smell those shrimp theyre beginnin to boil

Wastin away again in margaritaville
Searching for my lost shaker of salt
Some people claim that theres a woman to blame
But I know ... its nobodys fault

I dont know the reason ... I stayed here all season
Nothin to show but this brand new tattoo
But its a real beauty ... a mexican cutie
How it got here I havent a clue

Wastin away again in margaritaville
Searchin for my lost shaker of salt
Some people claim that theres a woman to blame
Now I think ... hell it could be my fault

I blew out my flip-flop ... stepped on a pop-top
Cut my heel had to cruise on back home
But theres booze in the blender ... and soon it will render
That frozen concoction that helps me hang on

Wastin away again in margaritaville
Searching for my lost shaker of salt
Some people claim that theres a woman to blame
But I know ... its my own damn fault

Yes and some people claim that theres a woman to blame
And I know ... its my own damn fault
