Cheeseburger In Paradise

CHEESEBURGER IN PARADISE 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 have these wonderful dreams Some kind of sensuous treat. Not zucchini, fettucini, bulgar wheat, But a big warm bun and a huge hunk of meat. Cheeseburger is paradise. Heaven on earth with an onion slice. Not too particular, not too precise. I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise. Verse 2: 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. But 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, medium rare with mustard be nice Heaven on earth with an onion slice. I'm just 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 cheeseburger in paradise Makin' the best of every virtue and vice. Worth every damn bit of sacrifice To get a cheeseburger in paradise; To be a cheeseburger in paradise. I'm just 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
