Heavenly Houseboat Blues Lyrics


Well, I'm building a houseboat in heaven
To sail them, deep and holy seas
Well, I'm building a houseboat in heaven
And it's welcome aboard you sweet, sweet peaceOh, the bow she is made of solid silver
And the hall she is made of solid gold
Now, she ain't much 'long the line's floating
But she's yours, babe, to have and to holdNow, I rode my old guitar to heaven
Oh, heaven didn't feel too much like home
So I'm headed out on to them lonesome oceans
In my ruby studded houseboat to roamWell, I'm building a houseboat in heaven
To sail them, deep and holy seas
Well, I'm building a houseboat in heaven
And it's welcome aboard you sweet, sweet peace

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Townes Van Zandt (John Townes Van Zandt, born at Fort Worth, Texas, March 7, 1944 and died at Smyrna, Tennessee, January 1, 1997). He was a country and folk singer and poet. While alive, Van Zandt was labelled as a cult musician. Though he had a small and devoted fanbase, he never had a successful album or single, and even had difficulty keeping his recordings in print. Many of his songs, including "If I Needed You," "To Live Is To Fly," and "No Place to Fall" are considered standards of their genre. AllMusic has called him "one of the greatest country and folk artists of his generation."
