Boats They Come

Boats They Come
(Bryan Bowers)

Cho: The boats they come and the boats they go
     Their bright lights are flashin to mexico
     I wonder if someday they'll ever know
     As they sail on the deep blue sea (2x)

He used to sit on the rocks as the sun went down
Wavin his arms like some colorful clown
Callin' to the seabirds a-flyin' down
Over the deep blue sea (2x)

Some thought he was crazy cause he said he could fly
Some thought he was crazy from the look in his eye
Mostly he's a character constantly high
Singing by the deep blue sea

Now he is gone and his hose is torn down
His white beard is never seen around
But children still recall the sound
Of music by the sea

Some thought he was crazy cause he said he could fly
He just leaned into life as it went on by
And like a sail in the wind oh it carried him high
Over the deep blue sea
