"Bama Breeze" by Jimmy Buffett (Josh Kear/Chris Tompkins/Mark Irwin)

1st Verse

At the Bama Breeze
You can shoot some pool down there
You can act a fool down there
You can play it cool down there

2nd Verse

At the Bama Breeze
You can drink some beer down there
Or get a laugh and cheer down there
Pass another year down there

Bridge

Jimmy got caught smokin' a joint out behind the bar
Sittin' in his car, and they took him to jail
The tip jar paid his bail
In 1984 Mick Jagger passed through town
Bought the house a round
Signed his name on the wall
In the ladies' bathroom stall, yeah

3rd Verse

At the Bama Breeze
I turned 21 down there
Had too much fun down there
Stumbled out with the sun down there

Bridge

Saturday night
The bouncer Brady lets the ladies in free
With the fake ID and the short enough skirt
Yeah, he figures what the hell could it hurt
Second set, the owner Lulu gets up with the band
A beer in her hand and sings 'Free Bird' slow
Then she raises a toast,
'Here's to Ronnie and the boys
Now everybody make some noise'

4th Verse

At the Bama Breeze
You're one of our own down there
You never drink alone down there
Good God, I feel at home down there

(Repeat 4th Verse)



  "Trip Around The Sun" by Jimmy Buffett w/Martina McBride (Al Anderson/Steve Bruton/Sharon Vaughn)

1st Verse

Here I'm singin' happy birthday
Better think about the about the wish I make
This year gone by ain't been a piece 'a cake
Everyday's a revolution
Pull it together and it comes undone
Just one more candle and a trip around the sun

Chorus

I'm just hangin' on while this old world keeps spinnin'
And it's good to know it's out of my control
If there's one thing that I've learned from all this livin'
Is that it wouldn't change a thing if I let go

2nd Verse

No you never see it comin'
Always wind up wonderin' where it went
Only time will tell if it was time well spent
It's another revelation
Celebrating what I shoulda done
With these souvenirs of my trip around the sun

(Repeat Chorus)

Tag

Yes, I'll make a resolution
That I'll never make another one
Just enjoy this ride on my trip around the sun
Just enjoy this ride...



"Window On The World" by Jimmy Buffett (John Hiatt)

1st Verse

A broken promise I kept too long
A greasy shade and a curtain drawn
A broken glass and a heart gone wrong
That's my window on the world

2nd Verse

A cup of coffee in a shaky hand
Wakin' up in a foreign land
Tryin' to act like I got somethin' planned
That's my window on the world

1st Chorus

That's my window on the world
Could you stand a little closer, girl
Don't let mama cut those curls
That's my window on the world

3rd Verse

In broad daylight that circus tent
Pulled up stakes, I don't know where it went
A close dark room with a busted vent
That's my window on the world

4th Verse

I think about you when I'm countin' sheep
I think about you, then I can't sleep
I think the ocean is just so deep
That's my window on the world

2nd Chorus

That's my window on the world
Could you stand a little closer, girl
The Queen of Sheba meets the Duke of Earle
That's my window on the world

5th Verse

Down on Indiana Avenue
Wes and Jimmy, man they played the Blues
I guess they were only passin' through
That's my window on the world

(Repeat 1st Chorus)

(Repeat 2nd Chorus)



"Someone I Used To Love" by Jimmy Buffett w/Nancy Griffith (Bruce Cockburn)

1st Verse

All the days we've been together
All the days we've been apart
Add up to a bunch of nothin'
If I'm not still in your heart
I never want you to be
Just a page in my history
Someone I used to love

2nd Verse

Your voice breathed in my ear
Or on the telephone
All the tender things we've whispered
To keep from feelin' alone
May they never come to be
Just cold gems set in memory
Of someone I used to love

3rd Verse

This current flows between us
That will not be denied
You draw me in towards you
Like the moon pulls at the tide
May no shadow ever fall
That will make me have to call
You someone I used to love
