Jimmy Buffett - Presents To Send You (A-1-A)

By: Jimmy Buffett
1974
Well now I'm in love with a fast-movin' angel
Dresses like the city girls do
When we're apart there's no ache in my heart
When we're together we're a hell of a crew

Chorus:
And I got presents to send you
Even got money to lend you
But honey I can never ever pretend
You're not there on my mind

There sits a fifth of Tequila
God I swore I'd never drink it again
But my last little bout I had my hair pulled out
By a man who really wasn't my friend
And I know I'll never see him again

Chorus:
Yeah but I got presents to send you
I've even got money to lend you
But honey I can never ever pretend
You're not there on my mind

Yeah, I thought I might sail down to Bridgetown
Spend some time in the Barbados sun
But my plans took a skid when I smoked a whole lid
Wound up where I'd begun

Chorus:
Yes and I got presents to send you
I've even got money to lend you
But honey I can never ever pretend
You're not there on my mind

(instrumental)

Chorus:
Yes and I got presents to send you
I've even got money to lend you
But honey I can never ever pretend
You're not there on my mind

Coda:
You're not there on my mind.....

Jimmys version of this song makes me think of hot, sultry summer nights and equally hot romance.

My friend just moved to Alabama. And we've been searching for like a buttload of songs about like Alabama and stuff. So this one adds to this list! haha

Perhaps his best vocal performance. Up there with Coast of Marseilles and Survive.

Wiki says Frank Perkins composing and Mitchell Parish writing the lyrics... I'm dying to hear the version by Sinatra! XD
