Jimmy Buffett (born December 25, 1946 in Pascagoula, Mississippi) is an American singer and songwriter, best known for his "island escapism" lifestyle and music including hits such as "Margaritaville (Songs of the Century #234)," and "Come Monday". He has a rabid, but genial, cult following known as "Parrotheads." They call the youngest members "Parakeets." Buffett has written three No. 1 best sellers. Tales from Margaritaville and Where Is Joe Merchant? both spent over seven months on the New York Times Best Seller fiction list. His book A Pirate Looks At Fifty went straight to No.

Big Rig Lyrics
Jimmy Buffett
By: g. taylor
1975
If I was a road dog baby
All o my songs were true
Reckon Id like my whiskey drinkin
A whole lot more than I do
But I dont know about the good life baby
Not so sure its for me
Id much rather be home rollin with you
Than watchin tom snyder on tv
I wish I was a big rig
Rollin on home to you
I wish I was a big rig
A big rig baby
Rollin on home to you
Now I been to lots o parties
Spent my whole life in a bar
Theres a whole lotta good lookin women out there
Who think I am a star
Drinkin and a snortin
Aint really where I am
If I had my own two ways
Id be rollin home to alabam
I wish I was a big rig
Rollin on home to you
I wish I was a big rig
A big rig baby
Rollin on home to you
-- spoken: ah, go fingers, ya!
Now some day Ill be better
My ramblin daysll be through
I wont have any more gigs to play
Ill be back home there with you
But meanwhile, wait a minute
Whats that thing I see
Its a good lookin blonde with a bottle of scotch
And she wants to go home with me
Shes lookin like a big rig
Rollin on home to you
I wish I was a big rig
A big rig baby
Rollin on home to you
Ya I wish I was a big rig
Rollin on home to you
Wish I was a big rig
A big rig baby
Rollin on home to you
-- spoken:
Ya Ill be home in a few days baby
Have I been good?
Ive been great!
Whoa!
