[Verse]
I Ewent down to ACaptain Tony's
To Eget out of thAe heat
Then I Eheard a voice call Aout to me
"ESon come have a Aseat"
I C#mhad to search my F#mmemory
As I C#mlooked into those Aeyes
Our lC#mives change like the F#mweather
But a C#mlegend never Bdies
[Chorus]
He said I ate the Elast mango in AParis
Took the lBast plane out of SaiEgon
Took the C#mfirst fast boat to F#mChina
And AJimmy there's Bstill so much to be Edone
[Verse]
I had a Ethird world girl in ABuzios
With a Epistol in each Ahand
She aElways kept me Acovered
As we Emoved from land to Aland
I had a C#mdamn good run on F#mWall Street
With my C#mhigh fashion model Awife
I C#mwoke up dry beneath the F#mAfrican sky
Just C#mme and my Swiss Army Bknife
{Chorus]
He said I ate the Elast mango in AParis
Took the lBast plane out of SaiEgon
Took the C#mfirst fast boat to F#mChina
And AJimmy there's Bstill so much to be Edone
[Verse]
We Eshot the breeze for Ahours
As the Esun fell from the Asky
And Elike the sun he Adisappeared
BeEfore my very Aeyes
It was C#msomewhere past F#mdark-thirty
And I C#mwent back to the Ahead
I C#mread upon the F#mdingy wall
The C#mwords the old man Bsaid:
[Chorus]
He said I ate the Elast mango in AParis
Took the lBast plane out of SaiEgon
Took the C#mfirst fast boat to F#mChina
And AJimmy there's Bstill so much to be Edone
He said I ate the Elast mango in AParis

The story behind the song

Jimmy Buffett was known for his tropical music, blending country, rock, folk, and calypso, and for a persona that often portrayed "island escapism," promoting enjoyment of life and following passions. This song, appearing on the 1985 release "Live by the Bay," fits right into that world, evoking a sense of exotic adventure and perhaps a final, sweet indulgence. It plays like a musical postcard from a sun-drenched, carefree journey.
