Livin' on sponge cake
Watchin' the sun bake
All of the tourists
covered with oil
Strummin' my six-string
On my front
porch swing
smell those shrimps
again at the bar
Wastin' 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
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
Wastin' away again
in Margaritaville
Searching for my
lost shaker of salt
Some people claim
that there's a woman
to blame
but I know
That it could be
my fault
Threw off my flip-flops
Stepped on a pop-top
But you had my heels
and shoes on at home
But there's 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 there's a woman
to blame
but I know
It's my own damn fault
Yes and
some people claim
that there's a woman
to blame
but I know
It's my own damn fault
