Son of a Son of a Sailor

Its the song most likely to pop into my head at any point in my day.
Dumb and drunk as I was, you know I would do it all again.

Well, this is pretty easy for me...

I sat there on the Coast of Marseilles just days before the Paris concert...

What a place!

Take a look....

This was one of the toughest to choose. Dead tie between Manana and Cowboy in the Jungle. Picking Cowboy by a nose hair.

yup again i went with the underdog. Livingston Sat. Night. i might ahve a bit of a biase here, but once you go to Livingston, Montana this song means a whole lot more. plus, the chorus is tough to beat.
If I had it all to do over again, I'd just get myself drunk and I'd jump right back in...

Although I'm the Kid of a Kid of a Sailor, I gotta live where the wind and the water are free....

Man, what a tough one..... but Cowboy In the Jungle wins for the lyrics..... SOASOAS is right there with CITJ, and Coast of Marseilles is just barely behind....

Oh hell, I'm going with Fool Button. I've pressed that button a few times in my life. :D Livingston is probably a close second even though I've never been there on a Saturday night (I think it was a Monday afternoon).
Twenty degrees and the hockey games on...

Damn. This one's tough.

I'm gonna vote Cowboy, on the strength of the story/lyrics.

"Coast of Marseilles", no doubt. It's such a beautiful song and Jimmy does it so well.

SON OF A............ was the very first Buffett song I ever heard.

I remember saying, once upon a time, "WHO IS THIS SINGING??"

It started it all, so I have to go with this one.
