[Verse 1]

Done waiting for that phone to ring

Ain't getting far, sitting in the bar wishing you'd walk in

And this whiskey ain't doing anything

Except keeping me up, thinking of us, 'til 2 a.m


[Pre-Chorus]

And I got tired of drowning

So I did something about it


[Chorus]

I bought a boat

I hit the lake

Ran that two-stroke right around her heartbreak

I caught a bass

I caught a buzz

Guess moving on ain't hard as I thought it was

Dead in the water

Hoping she'd come back, hope didn't float

So I bought a boat


[Verse 2]

The only thing that I regret

Is hanging on, not letting go, a long time ago

The only thing sinking is that sunset

That sky is gold, these cans are gold, and all I know


[Pre-Chorus]

I'm over going under

She ain't gonna ruin my summer


[Chorus]

'Cause I bought a boat

I hit the lake

Ran that two-stroke right around her heartbrеak

I caught a bass

I caught a buzz

Guess moving on ain't hard as I thought it was

Dead in the watеr

Hoping she'd come back, hope didn't float

So I bought a boat, mhm


[Bridge]

I bought a boat

I got some new friends

In case you were wondering where I've been


[Chorus]

I bought a boat

I hit the lake

Ran that two-stroke right around her heartbreak

I caught a bass

I caught a buzz

Guess moving on ain't hard as I thought it was

Dead in the water

Hoping she'd come back, hope didn't float

So I bought a boat


[Outro]

(Done waiting for that phone to ring)

I got some new friends

(Ain't getting far, sitting in the bar wishing you'd walk in)

(And this whiskey ain't doing anything)

In case you were wondering where I've been

(Except keeping me up, thinking of us, 'til 2 a.m.)

I bought a boat, mhm

I bought a boat
