Very hard to choose a favorite, this album has all great songs, but had to go with "Ringling Ringling".
Again, Buffett ability at clever lyrics caught me.
"And across from the bar there's a pile of beer cans
Been there twenty-seven years
Imagine all the heart aches and tears
In twenty-seven years of beer"
Who would ever think this up from seeing a pile of beer cans?

Absolutely love "Come Monday," but I'm just tryin' to get by being quiet and shy in a world full of pushing and shove...

I'm going to be unoriginal and say I LOVE "Come Monday"! My dad's favorite would probably be "God's Own Drunk", though.

Re: Favorite song from "Living & Dying In 3/4 Time"
I have a big country side to me so tunes like Ringling Ringling really appeal to me - out side of that I guess I have two favs on this album. "Saxophones" (but as Jimmy plays it now with the barri-sax rather than the base as it was produced on the original album) and of course Come Monday!
If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane ...

Spider John ... because Willis Alan wrote it and Jimmy does such a good job delivering it.
Gentilly ... 42 years is a long time to wait .... a Northeast Texas woman can hope.
