Perrier Blues 

By: Jimmy Buffett 

1978 

-- Spoken: 

"This is a brand new song we'd like to do for you now. And, I wrote this 

song sittin' sandin' the ol' main mast sittin' in the Hurricane Hole, in 

Nassau, Bahamas. About to throw up and the only thing that could get me 

through was a bottle of Perrier and a Jackson Browne album. So, this is 

called Perrier Blues." 



Ridin' high atop the main mast 

Harbor stretched out below 

All day I've been feelin' kind of half-assed 

So I asked the boy to lower me slow 

Lower me slow 



Sat down and drank me some Perrier 

Watched the seaplane disappear out of sight 

Confused in my head well I jumped back in bed 

Wondering who's at the fronton tonight 

Shinin' bright 



I know the night and I miss it 

I've got this thing for applause 

But like a cat on my rockin' chair cushion 

I've got to stretch my claws 

Move my jaw 



I know I've got the best of both worlds 

Though that sounds like a T.V. show 

When that anchor goes down and the sails are all furled 

Well it's back on the road I go 

Back I go 



Well I bitch about the food and the weather 

Wondering why the hell I ever came back 

But knowing deep down I love this merry-go-round 

And I can't wait to lay down this track 

When I get back 



Yeah, I know the night and I love it 

I've got this thing for a show 

If the ball's hit my way I'm going to glove it 

'Cause that's the only thing I know 

All I know 



Yeah, I know the night and I miss it 

I've got this thing for applause 

But like a cat on my rockin' chair cushion 

I've got to stretch my claws 

Move my jaw 

Move my jaw 



Can't seem to lose those Perrier Blues 

Can't seem to lose those Perrier Blues 

Can't seem to lose those Perrier Blues
