Tried to amend my carnivorous habits
G A D
Made it nearly seventy days

Losin' weight without speed, eatin' sunflower seeds
E A
Drinkin' lots of carrot juice and soakin' up rays

G A D
But at night I'd had these wonderful dreams
G A D
Some kind of sensuous treat

Not zuchinni, fettucini or bulghar wheat
G D A D
But a big warm bun and a huge hunk of meat

Heard about the old time sailor men

They eat the same thing again and again
Warm beer and bread they said could raise the dead
Well it reminds me of the menu at a Holiday Inn

Times have changed for sailors these days
When I'm in port I get what I need
Not just Havanas or bananas or daiquiris
But that American creation on which I feed

Cheeseburger in paradise (paradise)
Medium rare with mustard 'be nice (paradise)
Heaven on earth with an onion slice (paradise)
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise

Cheeseburger in paradise (paradise)
Makin' the best of every virtue and vice (paradise)
Worth every damn bit of sacrifice (paradise)
To get a cheeseburger in paradise
To be a cheeseburger in paradise
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise

I like mine with lettuce and tomato
Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes
Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer
Well good God Almighty which way do I steer for my

I created an account just to comment on this one... type "cabbage key" into your search engine and you will get tons of information on this song. Why make stuff up when you just don't know? The info on this particular on is readily avaiable.

Yeah, he was stranded and wanted a cheeseburger, and one day they arrived on the shore of Korea I think. I know it was somewhere that wouldn't have cheeseburgers, but they asked em to make one anyways. Jimmy said it was burnt and not much of a burger, but it tasted great to him
