Boats To Build

Lyrics

(with Alan Jackson)  
  
It's time for a change  
I'm tired of that same ol same  
The same ol words the same ol lines  
The same ol tricks and the same ol rhymes  
  
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  
  
I'm gonna build me a boat  
With these two hands  
It'll be a fair curve  
From a noble plan  
Let the chips fall where they will  
Cause I've got boats to build  
  
Sails are just like wings  
The wind can make em sing  
Songs of life songs of hope  
Songs to keep your dreams afloat  
I'm gonna build me a boat  
With these two hands  
It'll be a fair curve  
From a noble plan  
Let the chips fall where they will  
Cause I've got boats to build  
  
Shores distant shores  
There's where I'm headed for  
Got the stars to guide my way  
Sail into the light of day  
  
I'm gonna build me a boat  
With these two hands  
It'll be a fair curve  
From a noble plan  
Let the chips fall where they will  
Cause I've got boats to build
