Door Number Three

By: jimmy buffett, steve goodman

1974

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
