Buy Me a Boat Lyrics

I ain't rich, but I damn sure wanna be
workin' like a dog all day ain't workin for me
I wish I had a rich uncle that'd kick the bucket

an' I was sittin' on a pile like Warren Buffet
I know everybody says money can't buy happiness
but it can buy me a boat
and it can buy me a truck to pull it
It can buy me a yeti 110

iced down with some silver bullets


Yeah I know what they say
money can't buy everything
well maybe so.
But it can buy me a boat.
They call me redneck
White trash
And blue collar.
But I could change all that if I had
A couple million dollars.
I keep hearing that money is the root of all evil
and you can't fit a camel through the eye of a needle
And I'm sure that's probably true
but it still sounds pretty cool.
Cuz it could buy me a boat.
And it could buy me a truck to pull it.
And it could buy me a yeti 110
iced down with some silver bullets.
Yeah and I know what they say
money can't buy everything.
Well maybe so.
But it can buy me a boat.
To float.
Down on the water.
With a beer.
I hear
the powerball lotto is sitting on a
hundred million.
Well that'll buy me a brand new rod and reel.
And it could buy me a boat
it could buy me a truck to pull it.
It could buy me a yeti 110
iced down with some silver bullets.
Yeah and I know what they say
money can't buy everything.
Well maybe so.
But it could buy me a boat.
Yeah and I know what they say
Money can't buy everything.
Well maybe so
But it could buy me a boat.
It could buy me a boat.

The Missouri-born Chris Janson has electrified Nashville's country music scene. In fact, it only took two days at a local Nashville bar to incite a wave of interest from country music's biggest record labels. It could be his intense and vocally stunning performances, his remarkable ability to play the harmonica, or the depth of his songs, but there is something remarkable about this 21 year-old phenomenon. Chris' budding music career has even taken him to the big screen, when legendary film director Johnathan Demme (Silence of the Lambs, Philadelphia, Stop Making Sense) invited him to participate in "Heart of Gold" a documentary capturing Neil Young's 2-night performance at the Historic Ryman Auditorium. Asked to describe his sound, Chris replies that it combines "elements of rock & roll, folk, blues, roots music, and vintage country." Nashville's critics been buzzing with excitement about this emerging star, and have even likened him to a combination of Mick Jagger and Hank Williams Sr. Chris readily acknowledges his influences, but he has a confidence in his identity that transcends his age. "I want to sound like Chris Janson," he says, "It's just what you see on stage, that's what you'll get on my record. I'm not afraid to push the limits. I don't have a set list at my shows, I just play songs. It's all about soul and feel". And as all great country music stars and rock & roll legends are marked by their authenticity and originality, Chris Janson is on that same path toward greatness. Read more on Last.fm.
