Jimmy Buffett's "Margaritaville" from 1977 (recorded in 1976) with lyrics.
Lyrics:
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
Wasting 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
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
Wasting 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
Blew out my flip flop, stepped on a poptop
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
Wasting 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 damn fault
Yes, some people claim that there's a woman to blame
But I know it's my own damn fault

JB’s death blindsided me. I never lived the “Parrothead” lifestyle really, but I grew up in rural South Florida, and his music was just always there, on the country stations we always listened to. I never realized that, apparently, “Gulf & Western” wasn’t just a constant, inherent part of country for everyone. 🤷‍♀️

His songs are so descriptive they mentally put you on the beach with a frozen drink in your hand. I have a friend who was studying in London at the time he passed and was devastated there was nobody who understood. As for us, every beach bar for miles around was holding tributes to Jimmy.

To truly understand Jimmy Buffett you had to attend one of his concerts. I only attended two, but they are something that has to be experienced to be believed. The audience consisted of everyone from grandparents to teenagers, all of whom normally would have drastically different musical tastes, but who for a couple of magical hours were 100% united in their love of Jimmy's music and the dream of the lifestyle he sang about. We still have his music, but to know that there will never be another Jimmy Buffett concert is sad indeed.

I attended well over a dozen of Jimmy's concerts. Started back in 1975. I saw him in NJ and NC in the late 70's while in college, saw him in Florida, Hawaii and San Diego in the '80s while I was in the Navy. I lived in the San Diego area after the navy and saw him about 4 more times in the 90's and early 2000s. Moved back east and saw in him DC in 2010's. The last concert I went to was in Charlottesville VA. in 2018. Of Course it was hard to get around at my age (67), but I had to go. I knew it would be my last chance to see him, sing the songs with other people and party one last time. My Health is not great, but I thought I would be gone before Jimmy. God, I miss that Man and his music.

Jimmy Buffett was a jack of all trades. He was a musician, songwriter, author, playwright and entrepreneur. He was one of only 7 authors to have a No. 1 bestseller on both the New York Times fiction AND non-fiction lists. The others are John Steinbeck, Ernest Hemmingway, William Styron, Irving Wallace, Mitch Albom and Dr. Seuss. Some of his songs were trashy, fun filled chronicles of life in the tropics. Other songs were a gentle cross between poetry and philosophy. His concerts were loud, joyous celebrations of the laid back island lifestyle enjoyed (or dreamed about) by his legions of parrothead fans. His was a life of fun and adventure, and thankfully, he captured it all in song.

Jimmy was Florida's adopted son. Though he was born in Mississippi and spent part of his youth in Alabama, he really found his voice after moving to the Florida Keys. My first concert was Jimmy Buffett at the Orange Bowl in 1981, kind of a right of passage for us native Floridians. "Why Don't We Get Drunk," "Cheeseburger in Paradise," "Fins," and so many other great songs.

"Yes, I am a Pirate, two hundred years too late..." Just Grand, Diane! Jimmy Buffett was his own genre of music. Laid back, easy listening tropical rock beats with a bit of country twang. JB built his empire by being the nicest person to his fans, the Parrot Heads, as well as his employees. A very personable guy and his concerts were the most fun you could ever imagine. I've seen him live a half dozen times, and it was always a blast. I encourage you to listen to more of his songs, and, perhaps turn your parents onto him. I do believe they'd enjoy him. JB was into watersports, mostly sailing, his family and his dogs. I was devastated when I heard of his passing last month. His songs are often heard aboard my boat, all summer long. Upbeat and Cheerful, which is what I wish for you! Hi Chewie, get a treat!

Jimmy Buffett was sort of like The Grateful Dead in that he made his fortune not from record sales, but from live performances. That and his restaurants, clubs, and resorts. He wasn't just a musician-he represented a lifestyle-one that the Parrot Heads were devoted to. One thing I like about Margaritaville is that, a verse at a time, the singer takes responsibility for his own situation. By the end he acknowledges that he's the reason he spends his days wasted on a beach. I sometimes wonder whether younger people understand the lyric about him cutting his heel by stepping on a pop top. That can't happen any more because pop tops are connected to the cans. Before the drink companies did that, there used to be pop tops all over the place, especially at beaches. Jimmy Buffett's first big hit was Come Monday. It was before he developed the tropical rock sound. It's a good song that I think you would like.

A pop top is what you used to open a can of soda or beer. Today the tab gets pushed down into the can and stays attached. The old style pull tab is a ring attached to a raindrop shaped outline in the top of the can. It completely detached so people would just throw them anywhere and the edges were very sharp.

I grew up in Buffalo, NY but my cousin married a gentleman from Columbia, South Carolina. Her husband's family had a connection with Jimmy Buffet's family. So, when my youngest brother graduated from the Citadel (a military college in Charleston, South Carolina) we stayed in one of Jimmy Buffet's homes on Isle of the Palms (near Charleston). Thanks to my cousin's husband and his family connections to the Buffet family. I never met Jimmy, but his sister stopped by for the day to make sure that we had everything we needed while we were staying at his beach/island house. His sister was extremely nice and very down to earth. From what my cousin's husband said, Jimmy was every bit as nice and down to earth as his other family members.

Margaritaville was his only song that charted in the top ten in America. His money came primarily from touring in the early days and restaurants and resorts later. On one of his live CD's he talks about being introduced early in his career as Jimmy Boo-fay and the plane is one he was flying out of Jamaica when the authorities started shooting at the plane, thinking he was smuggling ganga. His concerts were amazing. As soon as he uttered the first word everyone joined in and it became a sing-a-long for several hours. His 'Before The Beach' cd talks about his foray into CW(country western) music but everything was great. His was a lifestyle few of us will ever achieve.......no matter how hard we try. 😎😎😎

Jimmy Buffett, and his music, is more about a lifestyle. It is a way of thinking, and living a laid-back, carefree life. It's about a romanticized life of living in the Florida Keys or the Caribbean with no responsibilities or any of the hassles of everyday life. As a Parrothead for over 50 years and as someone who has seen Jimmy Buffett in concert more times than I can count, I can tell you that words cannot describe how his music has influenced my life.

A pop top was the opening mechanism on top of a beer or soda can. You lifted the ring up and then you completely tore the opening off of the can. It had sharp edges and many people would just dropped them on the ground . And yes if you stepped on one barefooted it could cut you.

When Jimmy recently passed away, he was one of the most successful musicians in history. In terms of money, he was one of the top ten wealthiest musicians in history. And in terms of fan loyalty, nothing beats a Parrothead. He was also a modern day Renaisance man - he was a bestselling author, a sailor, a pilot, he wrote a Broadway play, was a consumate storyteller, as well as much, much more. He'll be missed. #FinsUp

I was in Key West to be at my sister's wedding and i went to his Margaritaville restaurant. After about half an hour he walks in, closed the entering sign, walked around and met people, then took a little stage to try out some new music to see if people liked it. That music ended up on his album Beach House On The Moon. Wonderfully friendly guy. His music is a lifestyle. He is missed.

In the 70's (When Margaritaville was released) beer and soda cans opened with a pull tab (pop top) that separated from the can and was often just tossed away by litter bugs. On the beach they would hide in the sand and often caused injuries. This lead to a redesign of the can to its current style of opening.

Back in the summer of '94, the ship I served on spent almost the whole summer out at sea. On our return trip to home port, we stopped in Key West. I made it a point to visit his restaurant. I had the Cheeseburger in Paradise, which is made exactly the way it is described in the song! It was the best restaurant cheeseburger I ever had.

Wow! Diane, I can tell you really enjoyed that song. It's one of my favorites. The jest behind the part, "...some people claim that there's a woman to blame...," is hinting at his friends and associates are talking about him and surmising that the reason he's on a drinking binge, aka Margaritaville, is because he's having women problems. He at first kind of buys into their assumptions, but after he's been binging for a while, he comes to terms with himself, that he's just drinking because it's his fault, his choice. He even admits after he cuts his heel and has to go back home, that he'll still be drinking and doing so in Margaritaville.

Been a fan of his since this song came out. But I have to admit, it was only when he died that I heard his music described as "gulf and western". Which is a perfect term for it! The song "Why don't we get drunk" is actually completed with the term "and screw". It's based on a couple of strangers he saw in a bar back in the 70s, trying to get together. He's also a best-selling author with books in fiction and non-fiction. Very interesting man.

a pop top was on metal cans of soda and beer in the 70's. these were pulled off to open the cans and most often just thrown on the ground, and yes lots of feet were cut by them

A pop top is the old way beer and soda cans opened. Instead of staying attached to the can it came all the way off and often ended up on the ground where one may step on it with bare feet and cut their heel.

A pop top was the part of a soft drink can that used to peel off to be thrown away. The new design pushes the pop top into the canned beverage. They were a litter issue and a risk to bare feet. Love from Florida

Hi Diane! I heard him play one night when I was waiting, as part of a clean up crew,for his concert in an outdoor stadium north of Dallas . His fans(parrot heads) not only like to drink, but they are known to be fond of certain leafy green substances. Indeed, his encore was a cover of an old Bob Dylan song, Everybody Must Get Stoned. When the crowd began exiting I was amazed. I am no stranger to mind altering substances, especially Demon Alcohol of which I was once said to be "overly fond". But out of all the years I've drunk, and I'm talking big parties, including Mardi Gras, I've never seen such an intoxicated bunch of people in my life! Nobody was walking straight. They weaved around in a sort of inebriated dance. They were falling right and left. One very attractive lady about 30yrs old, stopped near where I was sitting on the curb, she made a grab for the No Parking sign, missed it, and fell onto my lap. I asked if she was OK and she just smiled and told me that I was cute, and then went to sleep. I began thinking of possibilities, work be damned! Then a guy with whom she had been, staggered over and asked me why his wife was sleeping on me. I just shrugged, and he asked for her back. He called her name and she opened her eyes and asked me how I knew her name. I in turn, pointed to the guy and she said to me, "you're not my husband". Anyway, I helped her up and gave her back to her husband and they proceeded to fall down together. After I began working, just picking up trash and emptying cans and such, we proceeded to the camping area where hundreds of Parrot Heads had their RV's. Many were cooking barbeque and other stuff, and we were often given food, much of which was great! In any case, these folks refused to let you be on your way without a big drink. Few of us had any objections, hell, I would have worked for nothing! We finished work about daybreak, and now I am having trouble navigating. It was a great evening, and I even got paid!

And then found out he was having a concert in town and all those people were walking to his show. First time in my life I had ever heard the term parrot head lol.

Yep, Jimmy Buffet is definitely the Patron Saint of Burnt Out American Workers Who Just Want to Leave Work Early and Drink. If you think about it, a pan flute is kind of the sonic equivalent of drinking a margherita. The cool thing is that on Five O’Clock somewhere, it’s sung by country singer Alan Jackson. You ought to play it if you have time to see how they set it up, Jimmy Buffet is kind of a guest on the song. The two of them set it up cleverly.

Twenty year ago, I was living in Las Vegas working as a security guard. Jimmy Buffett played a concert at, and for, the grand opening of Margaritaville in Las Vegas. I was assigned with most of my coworkers to do crowd control. The place was deck out in inflatable palm trees, parrots, beer bottles, etc. I was thinking, "Glad I'm not on the cleanup crew." Anyway, the audience show up and they were mostly 30 and 40 years old, a few 20 years old but way less than I assumed. When actually good, because there were no incidences that I had to get involved even though alcohol was served. And yes, a good 3/4 to 4/5 of then were wearing Hawaiian shirts. And yes, everyone was singing along to the songs, having a great time. When the show was over and the audience dispersed, all the decertations disappeared. "Oh," I thought, "That's how they cleanup. Let the audience do the work and pay them with a souvenir. Smart." Well that's my story of the first and last time I saw (well mostly heard) Jimmy Buffett play live. Also, I smile every time I hear a Jimmy Buffet song.

In Pensacola FL at an outdoor bay side bar (low rent, non beach, side, now lined with corporate owned towers, including a JB Margaritaville resort), rough an tumble, I met a guy. Tanned like an old saddle, we talked and he told how he came for a business conference in the city, and spent an extra day on the beach. Said F' it, tuned in and dropped out. Cashed it all in, had enough for a small condo and just lives the life. That's what this song is about.

Pop top. Back in the day, soda cans had a piece that you would pull off the top to open the can. They would be on the ground where people would be drinking sodas, such as the beach.

I'm a subscriber and have enjoyed your videos many times. Thank you. I'm a big Jimmy Buffet fan. I think the term for fans is parrot head. Another favorite favorite blues musician of mine is Robert Johnson. You won't find a music video because he died in 1938. He made some records but never made any money off of it. He's also black so his songs are about stories the tragedies that African-Americans have. Another favorite singer is Jim Croce. He also had a tragic end. His songs have filled me with joy in my darkest days with his simple guitar and voice.
@user-pf7jm9go6o
@user-pf7jm9go6o 10 месяцев назад
Most famous of Johnson's songs is "Crossroads", especially the rocked-up version by Cream in 1968. Rumor was that Johnson met the devil at a crossroads in MS and sold his soul to become a better guitar player. The Cream version led to Eric Clapton's Crossroads guitar festivals and the movie Crossroads from the 80's.

The "Lost shaker of salt" is about him and his buddies getting a little paranoid with their cocaine when there were out one night. They dumped out a shaker of salt and Cleverly hid their coke in the shaker. The "Women to blame" was a waitress who was just cleaning up the tables. ...But Jimmy knew it was his "Own damn fault". -he explained at a concert back in the mid 90's

Back when I was a kid the tab on top of beverage cans came out, and had to be disposed of. Some people wore them like rings until they finished the drink. I saw PSAs about fools who put the tabs back in the can before drinking, and choking. Those tabs were sharp, and stepping on one hurt.

Pop-Tops - pop-tops on modern soda/beer cans don't detach when opened. When this song was written, they came right off (like a little ring and the part that used to seal the can) and in some places the ground was littered with them. They were the bane to barefoot goers since they would cut your foot right handily if stepped on.

I couldn't help but notice your puzzled look at the lyric 'pop-top'. Back in those days, soda pop and beer and such, had pull tabs that completely removed the opening on the top of the can that you drank from. Once removed, it was basically a small ring attached to a razor blade. Not uncommon to step on one hiding in the sand on the beach . He' blew out his flip-flop(sandal), and stepped on a pop-top'. He cut his foot and went home for a drink. Always enjoy your reactions. Cheers
