CHORUS:
Daydream – just glue up & nail her.
Daydream – just rig up & sail her.
She’ll get you on the water and get you back home

Her leeboard just pivots if you run her aground
Sittin’ on her marks she floats one thousand pounds… that’s my
CHORUS:
Many boats are made of wood, sweat and glue
There ain’t no magic professionals do
Life it is not some spectator sport
You do not have to know starboard from port… to build…
