Jimmy Buffett and Alan Jackson recorded this song as a duet on Buffett's License To Chill album.
Boats To Build
(Verlon Thompson/Guy Clark)
Well it's time for a change
I'm tired of the same ol' same
Same old words, same old rhymes
Same old tricks and the same old lines
Days, precious days
They roll in and out like waves
I've got boards to bend and planks to nail
I've got charts to make and seas to sail
I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands
A fair curve from a noble plan
I'll let the chips fall where they will
Cause I've got boats to build
Now sails are just like wings
It's the wind that makes '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
A fair curve from a noble plan
And let the chips fall where they will
Cause I've got boats to build
Shores, distant shores
There...that's what I'm headed for
I'll let the stars guide my way
And sail into the light of day
I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands
A fair curve from a noble plan
And let the chips fall where they will
I've got boats to build
