Hi Everyone
This is a song I have been playing around with alot these past couple of months.
It has a pleasant dreamy country picking chord progression and the lyrics are hopeful.
The song conjures up the image of a guy riding a pony out on the ocean , how you ask? Because he has a boat....he's riding his pony
on his boat.
Something about that powerful imagery in the songs storytelling makes me love this song.
Anyways I hope you guys enjoy my version of "If I had a boat" by Lyel Lovett.
"If I Had A Boat"
Lyel Lovett
If I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Ill sit me up on my pony on my boat
If I were Roy Rogers
I'd sure enough be single
I couldn't bring myself to marry an old Dale
Well, it'd just be me and Trigger
Riding through them movies
Then we'd buy a boat and on the sea we'd sail
If I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Ill sit me up on my pony on my boat
The mystery masked man was smart
He got himself a Tonto
'Cause Tonto did the dirty work for free
But Tonto he was smarter
And one day said kemo sabe
Well, kiss my ass, I bought a boat
I'm going out to sea
If I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Ill sit me up on my pony on my boat
And if I were like lightning
I wouldn't need no sneakers
I'd come and go wherever I would please
And I'd scare 'em by the shade tree
And I'd scare 'em by the light pole
But I would not scare my pony on my boat on the sea
If I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Ill sit me up on my pony on my boat
Well, it'd just be me and Trigger
Riding through them movies
Then we'd buy a boat and on the sea we'd sail
If I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Ill sit me up on my pony on my boat
Well, it'd just be me and Trigger
Riding through them movies
Then we'd buy a boat and on the sea we'll sail
Then we'd buy a boat and on the sea we'll sail
