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
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
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
I blew out my flip flop
Stepped on a pop top
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 and some people claim that there's a woman to blame
But I know it's my own damn fault
