Boats to Build by Jimmy Buffett

Boats to build lyrics by Jimmy Buffett, Captian Tylers restaurant in Crisfield, Crab Cake photo
 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.



Boats to Build: Hear it on You Tube

The aqua-colored building in the background is Captain Tyler's restaurant in Crisfield. Nothing better than enjoying a Crisfield crab cake on the deck while watching the boats go by.
