El country, la literatura de Faulkner, el algodón… todo el sur ha influenciado a Jimmy Buffet. Y También James Taylor ¿por qué no? El caribe ha lanzado muchos cuentos de traficantes de alcohol conocidos como “Rum-runners” (corredores de ron), piratas, vagabundos, prostitutas de puerto y los exiliados (algunos impuestos personalmente, otros no) del norte que han aparecido como el núcleo de historias y canciones.

The Great Filling Station Holdup ================================ By Jimmy Buffett
Intro: GDAD
D I pulled into the regular pump GD I was feelin' quite at ease EA I rolled down my window and told the man, "Fifty cents worth please" GD Then out jumped my partner with his trusty pellet gun DDAD He said, "Boy, this is a holdup, keep 'a pumpin' and don't run"
Chorus: GAD And now I wish I was somewhere other than here GAEA Down in some honky tonk, sippin' on a beer GAD Yes I wish I was somewhere other than here GD Cause that great fillin' station holdup AD Cost me two good years
D We got fifteen dollars GD And a can of STP EA A big ole jar of cashew nuts and a Japanese TV GD Feelin' we had pulled the biggest heist of our career DD We're wanted men, we'll strike again, AD But first let's have a beer
GAD And now I wish I was somewhere other than here GAEA Down in some honky tonk, sippin' on a beer GAD Yes I wish I was somewhere other than here GD Cause that great fillin' station holdup AD Cost me two good years
D We were sittin' in the Krystal GD About as drunk as we could be G In walked the deputy sheriff EA And he's holdin' our TV GD He roughed us and he cuffed us DG And he took us off to jail DAD No picture on a poster, no reward and no bail
(repeat chorus and fade) GAD And now I wish I was somewhere other than here GAEA Down in some honky tonk, sippin' on a beer GAD Yes I wish I was somewhere other than here GD Cause that great fillin' station holdup AD Cost me two good years
