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.

California Promises Lyrics
Jimmy Buffett
California promises
By: steve goodman
1983
Beneath the moonlit sky
Shadows walk beside the water
Sad goodbye whispered on the shore
Hear those wind chimes play
They serenade the shadow lovers
Ring and fade away
Like california promises
I will never love another
Wait for me, til I return
But she never will
He waits for her beside the water
Faithful still
To california promises
(guitar solo)
I will never love another
Wait for me, til I return
Though she never will
He waits for her beside the water
Faithful still
To california promises
(guitar solo)
