Door Number Three
Written by - Jimmy Buffett & Steve Goodman

Oh, I took a wrong turn, it was the right turn 
My turn to have me a ball 
Boys at the shop told me just where to stop 
If I wanted to play for it all 
I didn't know I'd find her on daytime TV 
My whole world lies waiting behind door number three 

I chose my apparel, I wore a beer barrel 
And they rolled me to the very first row 
I held a big sign that said, 'Kiss me I'm a baker 
And Monty I sure need the dough'
Then I grabbed that sucker by the throat until he called on me 
'Cause my whole world lies waiting behind door number three 

And I don't want what Jay's got on his table 
Or the box Carol Merrill points to on the floor 
No, I'll hold out just as long as I am able 
Or until I can unlock that lucky door 
Well, she's no big deal to most folk 
But she's everything to me 
'Cause my whole world lies waiting behind door number three 

Oh, Monty, Monty, Monty, I am walkin' down your hall 
Got beat, lost my seat, but I'm not a man to crawl 
Though I didn't get rich, you son of a bitch 
I'll be back just wait and see 
'Cause my whole world lies waiting behind door number three 
Yes, my whole world lies waiting behind door number three
