Yellow Boat

If I had a yellow boat I’d sail it to St Martins
Moor it off the white sand bay
Bobbing in the turquoise sea.

If I had a yellow boat I’d sail around the island
Twice afternoon and once again
as the sun goes down.

If I had a yellow boat I’d sail it to St Martins
Moor it off the white sand bay
Bobbing in the turquoise sea.

If I had a yellow boat I’d sit out on the deck at night
Listening to the curlews
and watching the stars go round.

If I had a yellow boat I’d sail it to St Martins…

If I woke up on a yellow boat
early on a misty morning
I’d land a silver fish and fry it there
Bobbing on the turquoise sea
