My barracuda

By: jimmy buffett, michael utley, russell kunkel, steve cropper

1988

Beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. a sleeping bag under a bridge by a canal is still waterfront property.

Barracuda...



Well I saw this couple

Just the other day

Livin under a bridge

In a homeless way

Like a million others

Without any plan

Livin day to day

In the promised land

In this unforgivin world there aint no doubt

Itll chew you up and itll spit you out

She calls him barracuda

My barracuda



She used to work in the circus

A real high-wire act

He was a lion tamer

Up until the attack

He came without instructions then he came unglued

And now hes just a monster in a human suit

She calls him barracuda

My barracuda



She still cant figure out what shes doin down there

And she dont know if he loves her or not

He may be a barracuda

But hes the only lover shes got (oh-oooo)

Barracuda



(guitar solo)



She still cant figure out what shes doin down there

And she dont know if he loves her or not

He may be a barracuda

But hes the only lover shes got (oh-oooo)

Barracuda, yeah



My barracuda

Not too many fish in the sea (barracuda)

Just my barracuda and me (my barracuda)

Swimmin around (barracuda)

Check out the town (my barracuda)

Hes such a barracuda, ooh, yeah (barracuda, yeah)
