Egga Nogga Ville

Post by ragtopW »

EggNoggVille (pronounced Egga Nogga Ville)
Christmas in the Florida Keys
Adapted from Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville


Livin' on fruit cake,
watchin' the sun bake,
all of them snowbirds covered with oil.

Strummin' my six string,
on my front porch swing,
singin' Christmas songs from days of old.

CHORUS
Wastin' away in Egga Nogga Ville,
Didn't get a Christmas present at all
Some people claim that Santa Claus is to blame,
but I know, it's nobody's fault.

Put on my flip flops,
drove to a park lot,
threw a tree on my car then I cruised on back home.

Where there's rum in the blender,
with milk and eggs it will render,
that chilly concoction that helps me hang on.

CHORUS
Wastin' away in Egga Nogga Ville,
Didn't get a Christmas present at all
Some people claim that Santa Claus is to blame,
but I know, it's nobody's fault.

Don't know the reason,
I'm teary this season,
you didn't call me, I didn't call you,

But now that it's Christmas,
I know that I missed us,
doin' the mistletoe thing that we used to do.

CHORUS
Wastin' away in Egga Nogga Ville,
Didn't get a Christmas present at all
Some people claim that Santa Claus is to blame,
but I know, it's nobody's fault.

Some people claim that Santa Claus is to blame,
but I know,
it's nobody's fault.

Maybe if JB does a Christmas show somewhere, he will use this version. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.
