Doesn't this look like heaven?...this is where I wanna be to get away from it all....I love the song, I love the drink, and I'd love to be there right now....It's beautiful.

MARGARITAVILLE

Jimmy Buffett

Nibbling on sponge cake, watching the sun bake,

All of those tourists covered with oil,

Strumming my six string, on my front porch swing,

Smell those shrimp, they're beginning to boil.

CHORUS:

Wasting away again in Margaritaville,

Searching for my last shaker of salt,

Some people claim that there's a woman to blame,

But I know it's nobody's fault.

Don't know the reason that I stayed here all season,

With nothing 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.

(CHORUS)

Cut my heel, had to cruise on back home,

But there's booze in the blender,

And soon it will render,

That frozen concoction that helps me hang on.

(CHORUS)

Yes, some people claim that there's a woman to blame,

And I know it's my own damn fault.

I always wondered where exactly Margaritaville was, and this is what I found out...

Margaritaville……It’s in the tropics somewhere between the Port of Indecision and Southwest of Disorder, but no parallels of latitude or longitude mark the spot exactly. You don’t have to be a navigator to get there. Palm trees provide the camouflage. Ocean breezes bring the seaplanes and sailboats, tourists and travelers. Passports are not required. Island Music rules. No waiting in lines for anything. There is a beach and a thatched roof bar perched on the edge of the turquoise blue sea where you can always find a bar stool. There are lots of lies and loads of stories. It’s a comical concoction that blends together like tequila, salt and limes.

Gotta Love It!
