5-bar intro
Verse 1:
Nibblin' on sponge cake, watchin' the sun bake,
All of those tourists covered in oil.
Strummin' my six-string on my front porch swing.
Smell those shrimp, hey they're beginnin' to boil.
Chorus:
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.
Verse 2:
I don't know the reason
I stayed here all season.
Nothin' 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 2:
Wasted away again in Margaritaville,
Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt.
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame,
Now I think, must be Buffet's fault.
Pedal-steel and mandolin solos
Verse 3:
I blew out my flip-flop, stepped on a pop-top,
Broke my leg twice; I had to limp on back home,
But there's booze in the blender and soon it will render
That frozen concoction that helps me hang on.
Hang on.
Chorus 3:
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 this is all Alan's fault.
Yes, and some people claim that there's a woman to blame
And I know it's our own damn fault.
