The Lawyer and the ***hole

Post by mikemck »

Anybody know if "The Lawyer and the ***hole" has ever been recorded? Or was it only performed live?

Thanks, guys.

I think it's funny that an artist has so many songs that were either never released or are so rare that they're only available on underground, bootlegged copies, but that so many fans know about.

Still kind of partial to "Please Take Your Fifteen Year Old Girlfriend Home".

No this was not cut from Havana DayDreaming, this was Jimmy's response to being sued for his recording of God's Own Drunk. He was sued by the estate of Lord Buckley and temporarily prohibited from preforming the song.

The songs cut from HD were:

Train to Dixieland
Drunken Girlfriend
Wonder why we ever go home

Yeah, I know. I was thinking of "Drunken Girlfriend".

How come on youtube it's always some other artist or 'artist' but it's always listed as Jimmy Buffett? Just to get people to watch it? Like the one with the kid and his little cars crashing all over?

So has JB ever - what is the deal with the song. I don't even know.
