I'm building myself a boat
it's gonna sail across the globe
until I find what I want
I'm building myself a boat
I'm building myself a boat
it's gonna sail across these seas
until I find what I need
I'm building myself a boat
And you can surely come along
no, we won't be gone for too long
we'll be back by dawn
Well I might settle down
in your lonesome town
or I'd leave right away
I know here I can stay
And you can surely come along
no, we won't be gone for too long
We'll be back by dawn
I'm building myself a boat
it's gonna sail across the globe
until I find what I want
I'm building myself a boat
I'm building myself a boat
it's gonna sail across these seas
until I find what I need
I'm building myself a boat
