Billy Driscoll - Detour Lyrics

I'm on a boat with a fan
Heading down the Everglades
I know for certain
That I'll soon be alligator bait

One thing that keeps me moving
Down this narrow stream
Is the thought of you with a beer or two
Living life in a sunset dream

5 4 3 2 one more till I'm back to you
I've travelled so many nautical miles
I'm sure that I've taken a detour

I'm all alone with a plan
To sail all through the night
If I get a move on
I'll be back before it gets light

One thing that keeps me moving
Under the harvest moon
Is that look in your eyes at an early sunrise
When I make it back home to you

5 4 3 2 one more till I'm back to you
I've travelled so many nautical miles
5 4 3 2 one beer till I'm all through
I'm getting nothing from this fm dial
I'm sure....

The only thing that keeps me floating
Down this narrow stream
Is lying next to you, with a beer or two
In a sunset's tranquil beam

5 4 3 2 one more till I'm back to you
I've travelled so many nautical miles
5 4 3 2 one beer till I'm all through
I'm getting nothing from this fm dial I'm sure....

I've travelled so many nautical miles
I'm getting nothing from this fm dial
I can't wait to see your beautiful smile
But I'm sure that I've taken a detour
