A sucker for adventure
I'm headed somewhere and somewhere is meant for me
Don't need no map to guide me
Wherever I end up is where I'll be

Goin' somewhere nowhere fast, mm
As I drift further I'll see the past forced behind me
If I don't reach land tonight
I'll drown in my own insecurity

Sailing in my little red boat (A little red boat)
Prayin' to God He will keep me afloat
While I'm sailin' in (Sailin' in my little red boat) my little red boat
Till I find my way to shore

Stuck out here by myself
I'm blindly rushing to something I can't see
High tide with sharks around
I'll send out an S. O. S. , come rescue me

My life looks greener now
What I wished for and got all turned out to be tumbleweed
The sweet turns salty on me
I guess I paid the price for bein' free

Sailing in my little red boat (Oh, yeah)
Prayin' to God He will keep me afloat

While I'm sailin' in (Sailin' in my little red boat) my little red boat
Till I find my way

To the things that I know
But I know I can't stay here too long
So a favorite journey helps me grow, oh, well
I'll just be movin on

(Oh, yeah) Sailin' in my little red boat (Little red boat)
Prayin' to God He will keep me afloat
While I'm sailin' in (Sailin' in my little red boat) my little red boat
Till I find my way (Till I find my way back home, yeah)

Sailin' in my little red boat (Sailin' in my little red boat)
Prayin' to God He will keep me afloat
While I'm sailin' in (Sailin' in my little red boat) my little red boat
Till I find my way (Till I find my way to shore)

Tryin' to get back, tryin' to get back (Tryin' to get back to shore)
Tryin' to get back to shore
Tryin' to get back, tryin' to get back
Tryin' to get back to shore (Floatin' in my red boat)

Tryin' to get back, tryin' to get back (Just tryin' to keep afloat)
Tryin' to get back to shore
Tryin' to get back, tryin' to get back
Tryin' to get back to shore

Tryin' to get back, tryin' to get back
Tryin' to get back to shore (Get back to shore)
Tryin' to get back, tryin' to get back (Get back to shore)
Tryin' to get back to shore (Get back to shore)

Tryin' to get back, tryin' to get back (Get back to shore, get back to)
Tryin' to get back to shore (Get, get back to shore)
Tryin' to get back, tryin' to get back
Tryin' to get back to shore (Get back to shore)

Tryin' to get back, tryin' to get back (In my little red)
Tryin' to get back to shore (Tryin' to keep afloat)
Tryin' to get back, tryin' to get back (Yeah, in my little red boat)
Tryin' to get back to shore (Get back to shore, get back to shore)

Tryin' to get back, tryin' to get back (Get back to shore)
Tryin' to get back to shore (Ooh, get back to shore)
Tryin' to get back, tryin' to get back
Tryin' to get back to shore (Get back to shore)
(Just tryin' to get back to shore)
