Lyrics The Wino And I Know - Jimmy Buffett
By:
Jimmy
Buffett
1974
The
ice
cream
man
he's
a
hillbilly
fan
Got
seventy-eights
by
Hank
Snow
Walks
down
the
street,
shufflin'
his
feet
To
a
rhythm
that
only
he
knows
And
I've
seen
him
in
so
many
places
I
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
Chorus:
And
the
wino
and
I
know
the
pain
of
street
singin'
Like
a
door-to-door
salesman
knows
the
pains
of
bell
ringin'
Strange
situation,
wild
occupation
Livin'
my
life
like
a
song
Coffee
is
strong
at
the
Cafe
Du
Monde
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
pastry
or
lobster
or
love
I'm
just
tryin'
to
get
by
bein'
quiet
and
shy
In
a
world
full
of
pushin'
and
shove
Chorus:
And
the
wino
and
I
know
the
pain
of
back
bustin'
Like
the
farmer
knows
the
pain
of
his
pickup
truck
rustin'
Strange
situation,
wild
occupation
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
Chorus:
And
the
wino
and
I
know
the
joy
of
the
ocean
Like
a
boy
knows
the
joy
of
his
milkshake
in
motion
Strange
situation,
wild
occupation
Livin'
my
life
like
a
song
Yes
it's
a
strange
situation,
a
wild
occupation
Livin'
my
life
like
a
song
