Cheeseburger In Paradise Tab

by Jimmy Buffett


                 
Tried to amend my carnivorous habits
                      
Made it nearly seventy days
                                     
Losin' weight without speed, eatin' sunflower seeds
                                  
Drinkin' lots of carrot juice and soakin' up rays

                          
But at night I'd had these wonderful dreams
                     
Some kind of sensuous treat
                                  
Not zuchinni, fettucini or bulghar wheat
                                    
But a big warm bun and a huge hunk of meat

Cheeseburger in paradise (paradise)
                        
Heaven on earth with an onion slice (paradise)
                   
Not too particular not too precise (paradise)
          (      )        
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise

                        
Heard about the old time sailor men

They eat the same thing again and again
Warm beer and bread they said could raise the dead
Well it reminds me of the menu at a Holiday Inn

Times have changed for sailors these days
When I'm in port I get what I need
Not just Havanas or bananas or daiquiris
But that American creation on which I feed

Cheeseburger in paradise (paradise)
Medium rare with mustard 'be nice (paradise)
Heaven on earth with an onion slice (paradise)
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise

Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes
Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer

Cheeseburger in paradise (paradise)
Makin' the best of every virtue and vice (paradise)
Worth every damn bit of sacrifice (paradise)
To get a cheeseburger in paradise

I like mine with lettuce and tomato
Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes
Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer
Well good God Almighty which way do I steer for my
