Verse 1
G
Now just supposing
C
you got cash to spare
D
and you love to live,
but you don't know where.
G
C
You want a house, but you like to roam,
D
G
D
so you look around for a seafaring home,
G
with none of that dull permanence
C
that men ab hor.
D
And lady, if your husband's alcoholic,
G
this'll put him on the water for good.
Now houseboats come in
C
a lot of forms,
D
there's a tiny kind that
can weather storms,
G
there's a monstrous kind
C
with its own front yard
D
G
that'll heel right over if
D
you breathe too hard.
G
You can only take her out
C
if the water's like glass
And even then you gotta
D
G
watch out for cracks
But you sign the paper and
you board the boat
D
And prepare for livin' like
a king afloat
G
When you suddenly
C
G
find you're up the creek
Cause a doggone cellar's gone
D
and sprung a leak
G
And brother, when your cellar
gets flooded
C
on a houseboat
D
You get a sinkin' feeling in
G
the livin' room
Of course, if that were all,
C
it wouldn't be so bad
D
But your heir to trouble's
job never had
G
There's gnats, mosquitoes,
C
D
bugs galore,
C
G
mildew rot,
and a warping floor,
and your clothes will start
C
sprouting penicillin.
And the planking collapses
D
when your kid pokes at it with a
G
lollipop stick.
D
G
C
And that monster engine don't help a lot,
D
cause it roars and sparks,
but it makes one knot.
G
You're not going elsewhere
C
to enjoy the view,
D
G
lest the tide and the wind
D
are going that way, too.
G
Of course, maybe you can hire someone
C
to tow you at a nominal fee,
D
G
but a nominal leg is more like it.
D
G
So you'd better swallow
C
your pilgrim's pride
D
by an empty lot by the waterside.
G
Get a trucker, Derek,
C
and take her in tow.
D
Drag her up on shore,
D
G
far as she can go.
Cause it takes a heap of livin'
C
to make a boat a home.
D
But like the tow boatman said,
G
C
G
Em
say that sure is a heap of ship.
