On The Water Lyrics by James Barker Band

Ahead Of Our Time

2023

[Intro]
I need a day on the water
A day on the water
A day on the water
[Verse 1]
Feels like I'm locked up
'Cause I'm land locked and I can't stop
Thinking 'bout drinking on a boat dock
While the sun drops on them coast rocks
And all that l've got's a whole lotta time to kill
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I've been on the clock, on the grind
Every day, nine-to-five
And it's ninety-five outside
And I've got twenty-four on ice
[Chorus]
I need a day on the water
Ass in a float or a motor boat ride
SPF this blue collar
Turn boots into bare feet, find a shoreline
'Til we're chillin' like Buffet on a blue sky bender
Working on nothin' but a Busch Light
I need a day on the water
'Fore I up and lose my mind
[Verse 2]
I got a pretty thing
She got a pretty pink two-piece
That she's been dyin' to wear
And I've been dyin' to see
Through them Costa Del tortoise frames
Bobbin' out there on the waves
Yeah, I gotta go 'fore I go insane
[Chorus]
I need a day on the water
Ass in a float or a motor boat ride
SPF this blue collar
Turn boots into bare feet, find a shoreline
'Til I'm chillin' like Buffet on a blue sky bender
Working on nothin' but a Busch Light
I need a day on the water
'Fore I up and lose my mind
[Post-Chorus]
'Fore I lose my mind
I need a day on the water
On the water, on the water
Muddy water, green water
Hell, I'd take some creek water
Anything to clear my head
Muddy water, green water
Anything but sink water
Anywhere but off of it
[Chorus]
I need a day on the water
Ass in a float or a motor boat ride
SPF this blue collar
Turn boots into bare feet, find a shoreline
'Til we're chillin' like Buffet on a blue sky bender
Working on nothin' but a Busch Light
I need a day on the water (Oh, water)
'Fore I up and lose my mind ('Fore I up and lose my mind, oh, yeah)
[Post-Chorus]
Muddy water, green water
Hell, I'd take some creek water
Anything to clear my head (Anything to clear my head)
Muddy water, green water
Anything but sink water
Anywhere but off of it
[Outro]
I need a day on the water
A day on the water
