Margaritaville

Nibblin' on sponge cake
Watching the sun bake
All of those tourists covered with oil

Strumming my six-string
On my front porch swing
Smell that shrimp, they're beginning 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
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 

Wasted away again in Margaritaville
Searching for my lost shaker of salt

Some people claim that there's 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 heal 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 

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 my own damned fault 

Yes and some people claim
That there's a woman to blame

And I know 
It's my own damned fault
