lyrics

Boat Song

Hey boy, don’t you get all wrapped up in the line
There is time to let it naturally unwind
There are fish below the boat that we will find

Hey boy, we’re cutting this old country like a knife
We are gaining speed before the sun will shine
We are bitten by the frost for just a time
We are certain to be hooked before the light
We didn’t come out here to go hungry tonight

This was said when I was first asked to come along
This was said when the city had done us wrong
And our bed was a bag and a rocky lawn
And I felt light in spite of the sun

Hey boy, I’ll let you throw the chum over the side
We are just a speck upon the ocean wide
You will feel alive once we begin the fight

Hey boy, it’s really not a question as to why
You must put your head down like a bull and ride
On through canyons and through rivers at their side
Until the night you would open up your eyes
We didn’t come out here to go hungry tonight
