Jimmy Buffett (born December 25, 1946 in Gulf Shores, Alabama, United States) is a singer/songwriter, best known for his "island escapism" lifestyle and music including hits such as "Margaritaville" 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.

Six String Music >From the Jimmy Buffett album _Fruitcakes_ By: Jimmy Buffett, G.E. Smith 1994
(intro: D chords)
D Turn off the T.V. D Turn off the crap D Kick off your high heels D Climb up in my lap
Chorus:
Bm And I'll play music AD A song from me to you Bm Simple six string music AD A ballad or the blues
No interruptions >From the telephone Don't need call waitin' Just you and me alone
Chorus:
And my six string music (six string music) A song from me to you Simple six string music (six string music) A ballad or the blues
GD Oh I remember that night in Africa GD My daughter and my little guitar GD Straddling the equator GA The king of Zanzibar GD Those shy black hidden faces GD They didn't know me from Adam's cat Bm But the words and the singin'
And the people in a ring GEmA And the whole night went like that
(instrumental: D chords)
Now some folks like icing Some folks like cake Some swim in the ocean Some paddle in a lake
Well you can get into Beethoven Or you can groove on Jimmy Reed But keep it simple stupid All we really need is
Chorus:
Six string music (six string music) A song from me to you Simple six string music (six string music) A ballad or the blues
Six string music (six string music) Ain't no symphony It's just six string music (six string music) So elementary
