Jimmy Buffett - Volcano Lyrics
Now, I don't know, I don't know where I'm a gonna go
when the volcano blow.
Let me say it now,
I don't know, I don't know where I'm a gonna go
when the volcano blow.
Ground, she movin' under me.
Tidal waves out on the sea.
Sulphur smoke up in the sky.
Pretty soon we learn to fly
[Chorus:]
Let me hear you, now
I don't know, I don't know where I'm a gonna go
when the volcano blow.
Let me hear you now.
when the volcano blow.
My girl quickly say to me,
"Mon you better watch your feet."
Lava come down soft and hot.
"You better lava me now or lava me not.
[Chorus]
No time to count what I'm worth,
cause I just left the planet Earth.
Where I go I hope there's rum.
Not to worry mon soon come.
[Chorus]
But I don't want to land in New York City,
I don't want to land in Mexico.
I don't want to land on no Three Mile Island;
I don't want to see my skin a-glow.
Don't want to land in Comanche Sky Park,
or in Nashville, Tennessee.
I don't want to land in no San Juan airport or
the Yukon Territory.
Don't want to land no San Diego.
Don't want to land in no Buzzards Bay.
I don't want to land on no Ayatolla.
I got nothin' more to say.
[Chorus]

RIP = WHITE ISLAND, NZ
get this confused with the one from Benji takes a Dive back in the day.
I’m currently in Montserrat where this song was recorded. I went to visit the studio and it still is there but is long abandoned and falling apart. The volcano is still active as well
I remember dancing to this at my school show
Does anyone have the ukulele tabs for this song??
This song is when I have fiery poop
Suffering too much Del Taco right now.

Cache song
This was favorite song other than Jingle Bells for YEARS when I was a kid
I really love the text, tha melody... A Mozart, a Houellebecq, a pope this guy...
There is also a dessert volcano.
Volcano bay water park was named after this song in Orlando Florida part of universal studios. Volcano bay water park.

Yet ANOTHER great talent out of the state of Florida !! Not crazy about their sports teams, but the musical talent that comes out that state is phenominal !
You lava me now or lava me not
Hurricane Irma here you come! Ima be yawnin in the storm because I got soul in the mornin
Your large fish is POP
I loved this song ever since my 6th grade science teacher showed me this song . a lot people in my class thought this was weird. but I loved it so much that asked to play it 2 more times
Lots of questions about the "Commanche Skypark " line It is actually Camanche and this is the story from Jimmy's tour guy in 1979 "Okay - so here's the scoop on what happened at Comanche sky park. I was Jimmy's tour manager for 17 years , and was at the show . We were flying in to Commanche sky park to do the show with Jimmy, and were in small planes provided by the promoters. I believe we were using 2 or 3 planes to get the whole band in. As we circled the runway to make our landing, there were stunt planes flying all around us, and off the runway was a plane that had crashed while landing at the strip. This made Jimmy and all of us very concerned. The plane landed, the show went off, and we all stayed overnight in our luxurious condominiums. (we all preferred hotels, so this was no big deal for us). I believe Jimmy also had a broken leg at the time. We left camanche sky park the next day, and all the excitement and disorganization of the show made a line in Jimmy's Volcano song! and this from the Pilot " its been a long time but i think it had to do with a combination of a night landing, no lights, and a short runway at the ranch [he is referring to camanche skypark, we call it the ranch in our family] and at angels camp [a small town about an hour from camanche] where the concert with jackson brown was held. Jimmy is a pilot himself but he was scared of our ass backwards country flying. we had a big party in camanche afterward"
i sing this song for show
One of the greatest comic songs of all time.
Should have used Mt. St. Helens for "When the volcano blows".
I'm going to see Buffet tonight!!!!!
I grew up listening to Buffett as my dad was/is a huge parrot head. One of the greatest story tellers of all time. He just has a way of "taking you there" in his songs.
Fun Song !!!!! Great beat!!!
103 People forgot to how to live Life and have fun

LOL! When he was here, he didn't want to land on Mt. McKinley! LOVE this man and his music.

I went to Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville inside the River Spirit Casino in Tulsa, Oklahoma earlier this evening. At about 8:00 pm that evening, Margaritaville's lights went down and this song was played.
i love you
being a 30 year fan of JIMMY BUFFETT brought me here. no thumbs required.
I saw him perform at Sea World in Orlando, Florida.
qaqe
jc
been listening to Jimmy since before the salt.
"Faith" made me think of this one and brought me here.
Great song, but these volcano images don't match the song. Buffett's song "Volcano" is more focused on the pyroclastic explosion on the island of Montserrat in 1995.
Didn't he write this song in the late 70s?
Jimmy Buffet is obviously Dr.Who and he wrote this about the future, which today is the past. DUH!
written and recorded in 79 on Montserrat. The volcano was apparently active at that time.
The Soufrière Hills volcano was dormant at that time, became active and erupted in 95.
wait till you step on a crab in Jersey
my favorite song
Wake waka
Hey, the Yukon Territory rocks! Love this song, have forever!
A bit of useless information: A'a is the Hawaiian name for a basaltic rock with a crumpled and sharp surface. The name is onomatopoeic because "A'a" is the sound you make when you walk across it barefooted.
poiutrew
poiutrew - the smooth lava is called pahoehoe.
You had me at "onomatopoeic".
I love useless information......
I WAS BORN ON THE DAY THIS VIDEO WAS POSTED!
