Jimmy Buffett - God's Own Drunk

The Queen Of The World says that while Margaritaville put Buffet on the map, this 1974 follow-on sealed the deal. Buffett got sued by the guy who wrote this, replacing this song with a different one, The Lawyer And The Asshole

I remember this album well. Pencil thin Mustache and The Wino and I know. Lots of fun.
RIP Jimmy.

One of my early favorites was "The Great Filling Station Holdup."

"out jumped my partner with his trusty pellet gun" -- we knew all the words around the campfire. "we're wanted men, we'll strike again! but first let's have a beer"

Lyrics like these kind of sums up the whole picture that people identify with Jimmy Buffett.

I am wearing my "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" flowered shirt I used to wear at his concert as mourning clothes.
