This became Jimmy Buffet’s breakthrough song – coming three eyras before Margaritaville – and it literally saved him. He wrote it for is girlfriend (and later wife) while he holed up on a Howard Johnson motor lodge (remember those with the orange roof) in Marin County slipping into a deeper depression. His career seemed headed nowhere, he had no money and he didn’t even have enough cash to bail his dog out of the pound. It sounds like a country song.
“Come Monday” changed all that and still stands out in his catalogue.
