You Got Me on the Boat Songtext
von Sarah Borges

Worked my whole life on dry land
It′s a big country
And I've traveled in it end to end
Got a call from this fella in the city that I knew
He said, "There′s a chance for a love that's true"

He said, "There's something gonna happen that you wouldn′t believe
Some kind of heaven and I found it on the high seas
The rest of the world don′t matter now
I'll be listening to NRBQ when the sun goes down"

Radio station was playing my song
Made me feel
Like all my years of trying weren′t wrong
And if I learned anything in those years
It's when the music′s playing, it takes away life's hurts and fears


There′s something gonna happen that you wouldn't believe
Some kind of heaven and I found it on the high seas
The rest of the world don't matter now
I′ll be listening to the Yahoos when the sun goes down

Now, I′m here back again
I couldn't have done it without the help from you my friends
My big red heart overflow
With a love from my head down to my toes

He said, "There′s something gonna happen that you wouldn't believe
Some kind of heaven and I found it on the high sea
The rest of the world don′t matter now
I'll be listening to The Mavericks when the sun goes down"

You got me on the boat (you got me on the boat)
And I ain′t never going home (you got me on the boat)
There's a better life (you got me on the boat)
That it ain't the one I know

You got me on the boat (you got me on the boat)
And I ain′t never going home (you got me on the boat)
There′s a better life (you got me on the boat)
That it ain't the one I know
