"Boats To Build" lyrics
"Boats To Build"
(feat. Alan Jackson)
[Jimmy Buffett:]
It's time for a change
I'm tired of that same old same
The same old words, the same old lines
The same old tricks and the same old rhymes
[Alan Jackson:]
Days, precious days
Roll in and out like waves
I got boards to bend, I got planks to nail
I got charts to make, I got seas to sail
[Jimmy Buffett:]
I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands
She'll be a fair curve from a noble plan
Let the chips fall where they will
'Cause I got boats to build
Sails are just like wings
The wind can make 'em sing
[Alan Jackson:]
Songs of life, songs of hope
Songs to keep your dreams afloat
I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands
She'll be a fair curve from a noble plan
Let the chips fall where they will
'Cause I've got boats to build
[Jimmy Buffett (Alan Jackson):]
Shores, distant shores
There's where I'm headed for
(I got the stars to guide my way)
Sail into the light of day
I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands
She'll be a fair curve from a noble plan
(Let the chips fall where they will)
'Cause I...
I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands
She'll be a fair curve from a noble plan
(Let the chips fall where they will)
'Cause I got boats to build
I've got boats to build
(I've got boats to build)
I've got boats to build

Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was won

Smell the sea and feel the sky
