green bananas lyrics

This old boat kept us afloat
All those years on the lake
I remember that day I heard my best friend say
This is probably the last trip I'll make

'Cause the doctors are saying it ain't looking good
And they doubt that I'll make it to spring
And it's a hell of a note when you never know
What tomorrow might bring

So I don't buy green bananas
I don't play the lottery
Right now's all I've got goin'
Yeah, and that's just fine for me

And I don't own an umbrella
If it rains I'm gonna get wet
So I don't buy green bananas
'Cause I don't plan that far ahead

It ain't the same on these hot summer days
When I'm out here fishin' alone
Well, sometimes I might get a few bites
But then there's days that I don't

So I just roll with the flow and I rock with the waves
Catch me some rays from the sun
Yeah and like my friend said I'm going to live while I can
Take each day as it comes

So I don't buy green bananas
I don't play the lottery
Right now is all I've got goin'
Yeah and that's just fine for me

And I don't own an umbrella
If it rains I'm gonna get wet
And I don't buy green bananas
'Cause I don't plan that far ahead

I don't own an umbrella
If it rains I'm gonna get wet
And I don't buy green bananas
'Cause I don't plan that far ahead
