Building A Boat Lyrics - Singles - Matt Mays

Oh I'm Building a boat to get me out of town 

So I'm cutting big tall trees down to the ground 

I'm gonna cut em up into bends 

With a couple of my friends 

We're gonna have her going so fast by the spring, yeah 

Oh I'll hand make all the sails blocks and winches 

Fasten down the hatches with big brass hinges 

And on the deck there will be teak 

and it'll never ever leak 

We're gonna have her going so fast by the spring

I'm gonna smash a big bottle of champagne across her bow 

And I'm gonna leave you for her, babe, 

It's just a matter of time 

Mediterranean water flows across her keel 

So fast oh baby you can really feel it 

At the helm on the wheel 

She's true to the wind 

She's so ?good and the sea is so faithful to me 

I'm gonna smash a big bottle of champagne across her bow 

And I'm gonna leave you for her, babe, 

It's just a matter of time 

When the wild winds wail I'll be setting my sail 

Precision and perfection second to none 

I ain't never gonna turn around 

No I ain't gonna look back 

It's my new home in the sun 

Photos 

It's my ship shape, great escape 

I'll bring all my Roy Orbison tapes 

I'm gonna leave you for her babe it's just a matter of time 

I'm gonna leave you for her babe it's just a matter of time 

I'm gonna leave you for her babe it's just a matter of time
