Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ol' Joe's got a Boston Whaler
He bought in Key Biscayne
And he swears since the day he's got her
She's been nothin' but a pain
[Verse 2]
When the sun's at his back
And the wind's in his face
It's just him and the wheel
He wouldn't take a million
For the way it makes him feel
[Verse 3]
Boats
Vessels of freedom
Harbors of healin'
Boats
[Verse 4]
Newport is where John hung his hat
Till he lost his wife, Joan
Now forty feet of sail, antique
Is where Ol' John calls home
[Verse 5]
He watched his life pass before his eyes
In the middle of a hurricane
Came out alive on the other side
That's where The Other Side got it's name
[Verse 6]
Boats
Vessels of freedom
Harbors of healin'
Boats
[Verse 7]
Twenty years of a landlocked job
Was all that Tom could take
Sittin' at his desk, alone and depressed
Says, "This just can't be my fate"
[Verse 8]
Went home that night and told his wife
You can tell all your friends
It's been real, but it ain't been fun
Gonna get us one of them
[Verse 9]
Boats
Vessels of freedom
Harbors of healin'
Boats
Vessels of freedom
Boats
