“Cheeseburger in Paradise” is a hit song released by Jimmy Buffett in 1978. It appears on his album Son of a Son of a Sailor. The song’s lyrics humorously describe a tropical vacation during which the narrator longs for a cheeseburger. With its lighthearted and escapist themes, the song became one of Buffett’s signature tunes and a staple of his “island escapism” musical style. It reached #32 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and has remained a beloved favorite among Buffett’s fans over the decades. Many see it as capturing the free-spirited, beach bum persona Buffett cultivates through his music.
