Jimmy Buffett - Saxophones lyrics

[Jimmy Buffett - Saxophones lyrics]

I cut my teeth on Gumbo rock
Benny Stillman and Dr john
Sweet Erma Thomas and Frogman Henry
Used to boogie-woogie all night long

Though I love rock n' roll
The acoustic guitar
Was the only way I had of becomin' a star
I'm doin' really nice and travelin' around
But they won't play my record
In my old hometown

But if I had saxophones
Yeah, big baritones cleanin' up
The muddy breaks if I had saxophones
I could get some recognition
From that Mobile, alabama DJ

Livin' by the ocean
Sometimes I get the notion
To take my Janey downtown


We hang out in a funky little bar
They call it the Shipwreck Lounge

Well, we get kind of drunk and
We play rock n' roll
Grabbin' everybody right down in his soul
When we get to cookin'
Something's still wrong
There's still somethin' missin' from
Them good old songs

If we had saxophones
Big baritone cleanin' up the muddy breaks
If we had saxophones
I could make that joint shimmy
Like a big California earthquake

Yeah, if we had saxophones
Yeah, big baritone cleanin' up
The muddy breaks if we had saxophones
I could get some recognition
From that Mobile, alabama DJ
