Buffett, Jimmy - Fins Lyrics
She came down from Cincinnati.
It took her three days on a train.
Lookin' for some peace and quiet;
hoped to see the sun again.
But now she lives down by the ocean.
They hang out in the local bars,
And they feed right after dark.
[Chorus:]
Can't you feel 'em circlin' honey?
Can't you feel 'em swimmin' around?
You got fins to the left, fins to the right,
and you're the only bait in town.
You got fins to the left, fins to the right,
and you're the only girl in town.
She's savin' up all of her money.
Wants to head south in May;
Maybe roll in the sand with a rock'n'roll man,
Somewhere down Montserrat way.
But the money's good in the season;
Helps to lighten her load.
Boys keep her high as the months go by.
She's gettin' postcards from the road.
[Chorus]
Sailed off to Antigua.
It took her three days on a boat.
Lookin' for some peace and quiet;
Maybe keep her dreams afloat.
But now she feels like a remora,
'cause the school's still close at hand.
Just behind the reef are the big white teeth
of the sharks that can swim on the land.
[Chorus]

Buffett, Jimmy Fins Comments
0:53 Perfect loop point.
I was there with my late husband Jason Christopher Craig he passed away on June 3rd 2017 so thank you who puts the videos on YouTube because it brings me back to that day it was a blast that I will always think about
Jimmy seems like the ultimate beach bum party animal. I'd sure love to see him live.
Joshua Brooks saw him in April down in Nashville. He puts on an AMAZING show!
Taking my husband to a Jimmy Buffett concert in Eugene, Oregon in just 2 weeks.....sure hope it is a good time!!
Dude at 1:49 just realized he left the gas on.
And will therefore be the most exciting thing to happen at a Jimmy Buffett concert.
I thought he was so good back in the 70s but now I realise just how amazing he IS..
I listen to his songs eery day and feel joy rushing through my veins..Thank you Jimmy
Who are the six of morons that don't vote is this?
makes me feel young again.
the energy on the beach that day was unbelievable :)
Wish I could do it all over again
I've sang Jimmy Buffet when I was a couple months old
Don't over think it - Buffet goes opposite because he's facing the crowd. Parrotheads go L on L, R on R, as they face Jimmy.
No better said...
i saw a few sour faces in the audience...they must be from other planets...oh wait even parrot heads from other planets know what good music is...i give up...
OH MY GOD! JIMMY!! I'VE DIED AND GONE TO HEAVEN..... AHHHHHH!
YEAH! ALL THOSE FINS.... CHAUD! TRES CHAUD!
simple. great. feel good. music
I remember living in Perdido Key, Florida during this! Parrotheads everywhere! lol
jimmy them people need help lets help them from super strom sandy
True Parrotheads know,....you go Left on Right and Right on Left.
rjworks, looks like an old Dean guitar to me.
What kind of guitar is Peter Mayer playing on the lead solo? It almost looks like a PRS, but PRS doesn't have anything similar to this, even in their private stock. Beautiful instrument.
It is a beautiful instrument. I have no idea what it is. Chris Lewis is probably right, but I can't remember seeing this instrument in their catalog. My guess is that it's a custom made piece by a local artist in the area.
