By townes van zandt
Im building a houseboat in heaven
To sail those deep and holy seas
Im building a houseboat in heaven
And its welcome aboard you sweet peace
The bow she is made of solid silver
And the hall she is made of solid gold
She aint much long the lines a-floating
But shes yours, babe, to have and to hold
I rode my old guitar to heaven
But heaven didnt feel too much like home
So Im headed out on to them lonesome oceans
In my rubystudded houseboat to roam
