Somethin' 'bout a boat Sittin' on the sea Out there in the wind Floatin' on the free Take you 'round the world Bring you back home Gives a man hope Somethin' 'bout a boat Somethin' 'bout an old guitar And the way it still sings After all the smokey bars And the broken strings Played a million songs Broke a lot of hearts Made some people stars Somethin' 'bout an old guitar Ain't it crazy how somethin' Seems like nothin' at all Take a big old room Make it seem so small Seein' windows where there are walls Makes a whole lot of something Out of nothin' at all Somethin' 'bout your dog Sittin' by your side If you had a bad day She ain't gonna run and hide Just a-waggin' that tail Grinnin' that grin Somethin' 'bout my dog Makes her my best friend Ain't it crazy how somethin' Seems like nothin' at all Take a big old room Make it seem so small Seein' windows where there are walls Makes a whole lot of something Out of nothin' at all Makes a whole lot of something Out of nothin' at all Somethin' 'bout a dog Somethin' 'bout an old guitar Somethin' 'bout a boat That gives a man hope
