this old boat kept us afloat
all those years on the lake
I remember that day I heard my best friend say
this is probably the last trip I’ll make,
cause the doctors are saying it aint looking good and they doubt that I’ll make it to spring
and it’s a hell of a note when you never know what tomorrow might bring
so I dont buy green bananas
I dont play the lottery
right now’s all I’ve got goin’
and that’s just fine for me
and I dont own an umbrella
if it’s rains I’m gonna get wet
so I dont buy green bananas
cause I dont plan that far ahead
it aint the same on these hot summer days
when I’m out here fishin alone
well sometimes I might get a few bites
but then there’s days that I don’t
so I just roll with the flow
and I rock with the waves
catch me some rays from the sun
and like my friend said
I’m going to live while I can, take each day as it comes
so I dont buy green bananas
I dont play the lottery
right now is all I’ve got goin’
and that’s just fine for me
and I dont own an umbrella
if it’s rains I’m gonna get wet
and I dont buy green bananas
cause I dont plan that far ahead
I dont own an umbrella
if it’s rains I’m gonna get wet
and I don’t buy green bananas
cause I don’t plan that far ahead
