    Story Behind the Song
    Deadheads used to follow the Grateful Dead from town to town and live for no other purpose than to scam tickets to each night's show. Parrotheads are the same way, only they buy their tickets in advance, have cushy jobs, and drink better beer. Take your pick.

    Lyrics
    I got my boat drink and my Hawaiian shirt. My friends are all decked out in hula skirts. I`m living the life you know the best that I can, but I still never met the man.

    I got a shark fin tied to the roof of my car
    I got a bottle of rum and an acoustic guitar. I got my truck filled up with Florida sand, but I still never met the man

    Chorus:
    I make my parking lot pilgrimage every year. Hoping just once he will appear
    And if he did I`d hand him a beer
    And break out with a grin from ear to ear

    I got the box set and a bootleg or two
    I got albums by Peter and Fingers, too
    I`m a registered Banana Republican
    But I still never met the man

    I got my tickets, I`m flying to Key West
    When I get there I`ll do my parrothead best. I`m gonna walk up to him, hope he understands that I just wanted to meet the man
