I just was listening to Radio Margaritaville and they played "Hey Went to Paris (New Version)", what is that all about?

Is that other people's bathroom break song too? I've used that for so many years at the concerts that just hearing the song on my CD player makes me have to go to the bathroom.

Yeah, but if its played at the end of the concert you could have to wait a while for a break... I prefer to go during WDWGDAS... he usually plays this in the first set or early in the second.

I don't mind WDWGDAS so much because that's what Jimmy dedicated to hubby and me at our wedding. I use CIP as a stand-by song when needed, but I'm sure glad I didn't do that when I was in Aspen or I woulda missed my chance to be a Referette! :D

Or you could just not go to the bathroom. :)

Why go at all? Go right before you get in and don't miss a minute. :)

After a few $8 beers into the show, there's no way around it!

Another wonderful version of "He Went to Paris" is performed by Waylon Jennings on a cd called "Ladies Love Outlaws." I'm "this" close to liking it better than Jimmy's verison.

Actually, I have a love/hate relationship with that song. Every time I hear "the war took his lady, the bombs killed his baby and left him with only one eye," I crack up. It's so maudlin it's almost unbearable!

Jimmy makes up for it though, with the final lines: "Jimmy, some of it's magic, some of it's tragic / But I had a good life all the way."

Oh, and I'm a Waylon fan but can't say I like his version all that much.
