    Boats To Build

    by: Alan Jackson

    It's time for a change
    I'm tired of that same old same
    The same old words, the same old lines
    The same old tricks and the same old 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
    She'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 them sing
    Songs of life, songs of hope
    Songs to keep your dreams afloat
    I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands
    She'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
    I got the stars to guide my way
    To sail into the light of day
    I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands
    She'll be a fair curve from a noble plan
    Let the chips fall where they will
    'Cause I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands
    She'll be a fair curve from a noble plan
    Let the chips fall where they will
    'Cause I've got boats to build, I've got boats to build
