Merle Haggard
The Last Boat of the Day
[Verse 1]
The long-distance love affair we just had on the phone
Left me with "Don't worry, darling, I'm on my way home"
So break out the champagne, we've got good love on the mend
I know you're coming tomorrow, I hope I can make it till then
[Verse 2]
I could be fishing or robbing the sea of her shells
Instead of here wishing for you and feeling like hell
Watching my last day alone slowly come to an end
I know you're coming tomorrow, I hope I can make it till then
[Bridge]
The last boat of the day, it comes and it goes
The sun sets on the last chance to hold you tonight, I suppose
But you'll be on the next one, I hope I can make it till then
[Verse 3]
The last boat of the day, it comes and it goes
The sun sets on the last chance to hold you tonight, I suppose
But you'll be on the next one, I hope I can make it till then
You'll be on the next one, I hope I can make it till then
