Jimmy Buffett
The Wino & I Know

Ice cream man, he's a hillbilly fan

Got seventy-eights by Hank Snow

Walks through the street of the city so neat

City that only he knows



And I've seen him in so many places

Saw him the night I was born

In a Bourbon Street Bar, I received my first scar

From an old man so tattered and torn



And the wino and I know the pain of street singin'

Like a door-to-door salesman knows the pains of bell ringin'

It's a strange situation, a wild occupation

Just livin' my life like a song, that could be a song, right



Coffee is strong at the Cafe Du Monde

The donuts are too hot to touch

Just like a fool, when those sweet goodies cool

I eat 'til I eat way too much



'Cause I'm livin' on things that excite me

Be they pastries, lobsters or love, thank you for yours, brother

I'm just tryin' to get by bein' quiet and shy

In a world full of pushin' and shove



That's why, the wino and I know the pain of back bustin'

Like the farmer knows the pain of his pickup truck rustin'

It's a strange situation, wild occupation

Just livin' my life like a song



Sweet senorita, won't you please come with me?

Back to the island, honey, back to the sea

Back to the only place that I want to be



And the wino and I know the joy of the ocean

Like a boy knows the joy of his milkshake in motion

It's a strange situation, wild occupation

Just livin' my life like a song

Say it's a strange situation, a wild occupation

Just livin' my life like my song


Mirror lyrics:

Just livin' my life like my song

Say it's a strange situation, a wild occupation

Just livin' my life like a song

It's a strange situation, wild occupation

Like a boy knows the joy of his milkshake in motion

And the wino and I know the joy of the ocean



Back to the only place that I want to be

Back to the island, honey, back to the sea

Sweet senorita, won't you please come with me?



Just livin' my life like a song

It's a strange situation, wild occupation

Like the farmer knows the pain of his pickup truck rustin'

That's why, the wino and I know the pain of back bustin'



In a world full of pushin' and shove

I'm just tryin' to get by bein' quiet and shy

Be they pastries, lobsters or love, thank you for yours, brother

'Cause I'm livin' on things that excite me



I eat 'til I eat way too much

Just like a fool, when those sweet goodies cool

The donuts are too hot to touch

Coffee is strong at the Cafe Du Monde



Just livin' my life like a song, that could be a song, right

It's a strange situation, a wild occupation

Like a door-to-door salesman knows the pains of bell ringin'

And the wino and I know the pain of street singin'



From an old man so tattered and torn

In a Bourbon Street Bar, I received my first scar

Saw him the night I was born

And I've seen him in so many places



City that only he knows

Walks through the street of the city so neat

Got seventy-eights by Hank Snow

Ice cream man, he's a hillbilly fan
