Hi Everyone
This past couple of days I have been playing around with this beautiful little song I found quite by accident.
I wasnt particualrly looking for new songs but this one played on a TV show as the outro.
The song is called "If I Had A Boat" by a fine country gentlemen by the name of Lyel Lovett.
Once you hear the corus theres a good chance youll want to sing along,in the video I play the chorus before playing the whole
song so if some of you want to sing along for this Sing With Me week feel free :)
So here is my version of "If I Had A Boat" by Lyel Lovett for HIVE open mic 100.
"If I Had a Boat"
Lyle Lovett
And if I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Id sit upon my pony on my boat
If I were Roy Rogers
I'd sure enough be single
I couldn't bring myself to marry an old Dale
Well, it'd just be me and Trigger
We'd go riding through them movies
Then we'd buy a boat and on the sea we'd sail
And if I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Id sit upon my pony on my boat
The mystery masked man was smart
He got himself a Tonto
'Cause Tonto did the dirty work for free
But Tonto he was smarter
And one day said kemo sabe
Well, kiss my ass, I bought a boat
I'm heading out to sea
And if I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Id sit upon my pony on my boat
And if I were like lightning
I wouldn't need no sneakers
I'd come and go wherever I would please
And I'd scare 'em by the shade tree
And I'd scare 'em by the light pole
But I would not scare my pony on my boat out on the sea
And if I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Id sit upon my pony on my boat
Id sit upon my pony on my boat

friend, I can tell you that I really admire your voice, you have that guitar that combines excellent with country music. The truth is that you have a lot of talent, the hoarseness of your voice so natural, I would have liked to have heard a rise in tone, perhaps an arrangement sometimes of your voice going up an octave, the truth is to see occasions where you add a lot of strength to your combined voice sometimes gently. Wow, the truth is that you sing well, so you should exploit that talent!
