Third Coast from The Port A to Port cd

He said, I left California back in '76
the music died with Jimi Hendrix
things got crazy in San Francisco
But thumbin' cross the country, I thought I would freeze
So I followed Buffet to the Florida Keys
Where I nearly got busted, with a load,of snow white cargo

But I picked up this boat, in a illegal deal
You could say, I got a hell of a steal
But I couldn't stay there, so I headed to Islamado
But as a sea captain, I ain't worth a damn
Out in the ocean I got all turned around
Then I limped into Bolliver, with a hole in my hull

I said if I ain't sinkin', well I must be swimin'
If I ain't dead, I must be livin'
Livin' is the thing, that scares me the most
And if I ain't sleepin', well I better be fishin'
If I ain't anchored I will be driftin'
But all and all, I'm doing pretty good,
since I hit my third coast

Said I quit the weed, pokin' holes in my arms
I gotta stay straight, weather these storms
When they blow in off the gulf, in the fall of the year
See Port Bolliver, was a blessing to me
It gave me a chance to give it back to the sea
I think god every morning when I wake up and
I'm still here.

chorus
And I ain't sinkin' So I must be swimin'
I ain't dead so I must be livin'
Livin' is the thing that still scares me the most
And if I ain't sleepin' then I'd better be fishin'
If I ain't anchored, I will be driftin'
but all and all, I' doing pretty good
since I hit my third coast

Solo:

So you gotta stand up boy, If you wanna make ends meet
'cause the ropes to short when your on your knees
you gotta listen for the ring, if you wanna answer the call.
'cause fishin' ain't fishin, fishin' ain't fun
livin' ain't livin' less you feel like you've won
winning ain't winning if it ain't worth the cost

chorus

See if you ain't sinkin' well your swimin'
if you ain't dead, your livin'
livin' is the thing, better scare you the most
And if you ain't sleepin' well ya better be fishin'
If you ain't anchored, you will be driftin'
All and all, you'll be doing pretty good
when you find your third coast
when you find your third coast

Yea, see ol'Jack he'd roll out of his bunk about 6:30
in the morning, say, "Larry Joe, I'm gonna teach you how
to sail today buddy. You gotta get your sea legs under ya.
You gotta roll with them waves. You gotta get right.
Lord, you gotta get right."

That's why I left California back in '76
the music died with Jimi Hendrix.
