Too Poor for Offshore

[chorus] 5am Hitch the trailer up thinkin oh no, not again.... Another bay fishing trip, this could be the one where I turn in.... It's 10am and the fishing is slow.... Now we got a couple skipjack in the box and off we go..... I look to my buddy and say... We can make this an offshore rodeo..... But there's one thing bothering me... the grinding noise from cylinder three..... this boat aint made for blue water so we gotta stick-to-the-green [chorus] i'm too poor for offshore! Backin' up a trailer Hopin' for the best Boats in the water Better than the rest See I'm not one to make apologies But my boat don't got reverse And I'm born to be free I got buddies on the bay Floatin' around But my boat don't rev up No engine sound I see the big dogs sailin' out to sea Man Oh man I wish that could be me See My boat ain't fast Always breakin' down Reverse gear shot Ain't got no choke around But I go out on my own time Just fine When the gulf is glassy and the sun's on the line I see the big dogs sailin' out to sea If youre gonna fish inshore mightaswell do it with me.. [Chorus] Bay breeze Blowin' in my hair Sailin' on the water Not a single care Got my boat and my buddies We're living in peace Bay breeze Bringin' that sweet release
