Burn The Boat

Burn the Boat
Matt Rogers, BMI

V1
Saved up some change in a mason jar
We sailed away to a place you can't get to train, plane, or car
This is the life; a sweet getaway
A sandy slice of paradise, and I think we’re gonna stay

C
Let's burn the boat
We’ll watch that thing go up in smoke
Untie the ropes and watch it float
Away from here; we ain’t ever going home
Let's burn the boat
Laid back in water crystal clear
They’ll think that we just disappeared
Get what you need hey save the beer
And let's burn the boat

V2
A bamboo hut; we'll throw us a hammock up
Lose track of time, no suntan lines I’ve watched survivor enough
To catch some fish, and live off the grid
Glass bottle note, sent out to shore, saying “we don’t need saving”

B
We got it made girl, out here soaking up the sun
We’ll find some sugarcane, and I’ll make us up some rum
