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

 Cuz the doctors are saying it ain’t lookin’ good

 And I 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 don’t buy green bananas

 Well I don’t play the lottery

 Right now’s all I’ve got going

 Yeah and that’s just fine for me

 And I don’t own an umbrella

 If it rains, I’m gonna get wet

 So I don’t buy green bananas

 Cuz I don’t 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

 Yeah and like my friend said I’m gonna live while I can

 And take each day as it comes

 So I don’t buy green bananas

 I don’t play the lottery

 Right now’s all I’ve got goin’

 Yea and that’s just fine for me

 And I don’t own an umbrella

 If it rains, I’m gonna get wet

 And I don’t buy green bananas

 I don’t plan that far ahead

 I don’t own an umbrella

 If it rains, I’m gonna get wet

 And I don’t buy green bananas

 Cuz I don’t plan... that far... ahead
