Summer is almost over. C'mon, sing along!
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
Chorus:
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
Chorus:
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

ReplyDeleteOh I love me some Jimmie Buffet.
Can't blow out my flip flops this early in the fall season!HA You and Mrs. DL go on to bed, I'll clean up before I leave.
That song just speaks volumes, doesn't it? I still think there is probably a woman to blame...
ReplyDeleteAnd, I wish I were there drinking those margaritas with y'all!
For a minute I thought I was back in Mazatlan! And, you are so accommodating...now I don't have to run downstairs and put on my favorite CD--great music. Thanks!
