Sing Along...Margaritaville

Sorry, just need a cruise bad and Margaritaville always gets me in the cruising mood...

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

How About

Cheeseburger in Paradise

Tried to amend my carnivorous habits.
Made it nearly seventy days,
Losin' weight without speed, eatin' sunflower seeds,
Drinkin' lots of carrot juice and soakin' up rays.

But at night I'd have these wonderful dreams
Some kind of sensuous treat.
Not zucchini, fettuccini, or bulgur wheat,
But a big warm bun and a huge hunk of meat.

Cheeseburger is paradise.
Heaven on earth with an onion slice.
Not too particular, not too precise.
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise.

I like mine with lettuce and tomato,
Heinz Fifty-seven and French fried potatoes.
Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer.
Well, good God Almighty, which way do I steer
For my cheeseburger in paradise.

Heard about the old time sailor men,
They eat the same thing again and again;
Warm beer and bread they say could raise the dead.
Well, it reminds me of the menu at a Holiday Inn.

But times have changed for sailors these days.
When I'm in port I get what I need;
Not just Havanas or banana or daiquiris,
But that American creation on which I feed!

Cheeseburger is paradise medium rare with mustard'd be nice
Not too particular, not too precise
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise.

I like mine with lettuce and tomato
Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes
Big kosher pickle and a cold draught beer
Well, good god Almighty which way do I steer

For a cheeseburger in paradise
Makin' the best of every virtue and vice.
Worth every damn bit of sacrifice
To get a cheeseburger in paradise;
To be a cheeseburger in paradise.
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise.

Volcano

I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go
When the volcano blows,
I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go
When the volcano blows
Ground she's movin' under me
Tidal waves out on the sea,
Sulphur smoke up in the sky
Pretty soon we learn to fly
Let me hear ya now

I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go
When the volcano blows
Now my girl quickly said to me,
Mon you better watch your feet
Lava come down soft and hot,
You better lava me now or lava me not

I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go
When the volcano blows
(Instrumental)
No time to count what I'm worth,
Cause I just left the planet
earth,
Where I go I hope there's rum,
Not to worry, mon soon come

I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go
When the volcano blows
But I don't want to land in New York City
Don't want to land in Mexico (No no no)
Don't want to land on no three mile island
Don't want to see my skin aglow (No no no)
Don't want to land in Comanche Sky Park
Or in Nashville Tennessee (No no no)
Don't want to land in no San Juan airport
Or in the Yukon Territory (No no no)
Don't want to land no San Diego
Don't want to land in no Buzzard Bay (No no no)
I don't want to land on no Ayatollah
I got nothin' more to say

I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go
When the volcano blows

I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go
When the volcano blows

Hi TB!

Hello, my name is Cathy & I'm a cruiseaholic! How long has it been since your last cruise? I just got back from one on 1/27 & I'm dying for a cruise - don't even have one planned (yet)!

Feeling your pain! Crying or Very sad

[b]Jimmy Buffett - Come Monday Lyrics

[/b]

Headin' up to San Francisco
for the Labor Day weekend show,
I've got my hush-puppies on,
I guess I never was meant for
glitter rock and roll.
And honey I didn't know
that I'd be missin' you so.

[Chorus:]
Come Monday It'll be all right,
Come Monday I'll be holding you tight.
I spent four lonely days in a brown L.A. haze
and I just want you back by my side.

Yes it's been quite a summer,
rent-a-cars and west bound trains.
And now you're off on vacation,
somethin' you tried to explain.
And darlin' I love you so that's
the reason I just let you go.

[Chorus]

I can't help it honey,
you're that much a part of me now.
Remember the night in Montana when
we said there'd be no room for doubt.

I hope you're enjoyin' the scenery,
I know that it's pretty up there.
We can go hikin on Tuesday,
with you I'd walk anywhere.
California has worn me quite thin,
I just can't wait to see you again.

[Chorus]

Another Parrot Head here!! Parrot Heads and cruising seem to go hand in hand. I think I am going to feel right at home here. So let me introduce myself. I go by OceanGoingGal but my name is Laura. I live in Lakeland Florida. I moved here last year from NH. I got tired of freezin my beehiney off. I love to cruise or I would not be here. I do not have anything on the books for the near future. I am booked on Carnival Pride on March 22, 2009 for a 14 day cruise from Los Angeles to Miami. I do belong to another cruise related website that I have belonged to for a long time. I have made many good friends since I took up cruising way back in the dark ages of 1983. So to you all I say Hello!!!

Guest

Hi OceanGoingGal, we're glad you're here!! And, unlike other boards, we don't mind that you belong to other cruise chat boards but we do hope you'll help spread the word that Cruise Freeks is here (to stay) Very Happy

Trip Around The Sun

[Jimmy:]
Hear 'em singing happy birthday
Better think about the wish I make
This year gone by
Ain't been a piece of cake.

[Martina:]
Every day's a revolution
Pull it together and it comes undone
Just one more candle and a trip around the sun.

[Jimmy and Martina:]
I'm just hanging on while this old world keeps spinning
And it's good to know it's out of my control.
If there's one thing that I've learned from all this living
Is that it wouldn't change a thing if I let go.

[Martina:]
No you never see it coming,
Always wind up wondering where it went.

[Jimmy:]
Only time will tell
If it was time well spent.
It's another revelation,

[Martina:]
Celebrating what I should have done
With these souvenirs of my trip around the sun.

[Martina and Jimmy:]
I'm just hanging on while this old world keeps spinning
And it's good to know it's out of my control.
If there's one thing I have learned from all this living
Is that it wouldn't change a thing if I let go.

[Bridge]

[Jimmy:]
Yes I'll make a resolution

[Martina:]
That I'll never make another one.

[Jimmy and Martina:]
Just enjoy this ride on my
Trip around the sun.
Just enjoy this ride
On my trip around the sun...
Trip around the sun.

I was shopping Wegmans (grocery store) & they have their whole summer area set up. It included a palm tree, margarita glasses, etc. You get close to the tree & what do you hear? Jimmy Buffet playing softly to get you in the mood!!

Our last cruise was April of last year with our Military Moms group............so I feel your pcd (post cruise depression)............we do have another booked for next year so it's not too bad knowing there is another waiting to take us away from it all.
