lyrics

There's a wise old fella could piece anything together
With his two hands nail wood and glue
He dreamed of a sailboat he guaranteed would float
The coastal water they call the Topsail Beach Sound
It took years and years of work a blood and sweat effort
For a sailboat built as true as any man could
He was ready to go but the wind would not show
So he hung his head and stared at that dry docked wood

Sometimes you give it your best shot
In the end all that you got
Is a stomach tied in knots
And life you forgot
Turns out it wasn't your day

There's a love drunk man doing everything he can
To provide for the woman he loves child on the way
He picked up the extra shift without showing one ounce of quit
So the boss man kicked him down a bit of extra pay
But all that extra work it created quite a thirst
So he'd stop off at the bar before heading home
And his wife said "you don't understand, money don't make a man"
So she left him like an old couch sitting on the side of the road
