Seven long years living on the ground
Waiting for the day when my ship can float
Working every day and way that I can
So I can make a plan to get to distant land
I’m a traveller who just can’t go
Stuck in a rut that’s killing my flow
I’m living in a boatyard
Living in a boatyard
Living in a boatyard
Living in a boatyard
I got all the amenities my money can buy
Electricity, water, food supply
The boat’s above the ground
held up just above a ditch
You need to climb a ladder to get into it
I’m living in a boatyard
You’re living in a boatyard
We’re living in a boatyard
Everybody living in a boatyard
I got Johnny to the left and Susie to the right
They watch my boat when I ain’t home at night
We like to cook together and share out meals
Susie’s got a hotplate and sex appeal
I’m living in a boatyard
You’re living in a boatyard
We’re living in a boatyard
Everybody living in a boatyard
