If I had me a nickel for every time
Could count on you, I wouldn't have a dime
If I could trade your so-called love into cold hard cash
It'd turn my life around real fast
If I could take the heartaches, all the letdowns and the pain
Count em all up, Cash em all in. And make a quick stop at the bank.
I'd be on a boat somewhere
Out in the ocean, fishin' for a cold beer, suntan lotion, floatin'
Livin' it up up, soakin' it in, instead of sittin round worryin' bout where you been
If I could I trade the lies you told for gold, I swear, I'd be on a boat somewhere
I'd be spendin' them new found dollar bills
Finally catching a buzz that you can't kill
And it'd be hard to think about you on Key West time
Between the sun and the water and the salt and the lime
If these blues were greenbacks, I'd be raking em in
Instead of hanging round here, waitin' for you and my ship to come in
I'd be on a boat somewhere
Out in the ocean, fishin' for a cold beer, suntan lotion, floatin'
Livin' it up up, soakin' it in, instead of sitting round worryin' bout where you been
If I could I trade the lies you told for gold, I swear, I'd be on a boat somewhere
I'd be on a boat somewhere
Out in the ocean, fishin' for a cold beer, suntan lotion, floatin'
Livin' it up up, soakin' it in, instead of sitting round worryin' bout where you been
If I could I trade the lies you told for gold, I swear, Baby me and you wouldn't have a prayer. I'd be on a boat somewhere.
Yeah, I be on a boat somewhere.
A big old boat somewhere.
