[Chorus]
Yeah I'm talking 'bout a John Boat
Cane poles in it and the moonlight
Just trying to get away from my worries
Get away from the worries
I got my headphones on and a basket of crickets
Bumping that Jones
Trying to get away from my worries
Take me away from the worries
Take me away
[Verse 1]
Take me away, I don't wanna hear about it
I just wanna relax out here and clear my head
Please don't inbox me other folks business like
Who broke up with who and what somebody said
I need to unplug and find the right song
Sometimes it only takes a few lines to help me along
So I'll be right out here baiting this hook
In a backwoods fishing hole you couldn't find if you looked
With nothing in sight just me and my thoughts
So, from this moment on I'll be cutting it off
The biggest waste of my time is no more
I'll be worrying about the things I can control
Like a
[Chorus]
John Boat cane poles in it and the moonlight
Just trying to get away from my worries
Get away from the worries
I got my headphones on and a basket of crickets
Bumping that Jones
Trying to get away from my worries
Take me away from the worries
Take me away
[Verse 2]
I gotta be strong, so many depend on me
To guide 'em and protect 'em but sometimes I can't pretend to be
The guy with no stress or worries, that's a fairy tale
Life is a true story and sometimes the plot is hell
Guardian angels abound but it's times like right now
I'd rather that they come down
'Cause searching for the answers among my thoughts is sickening
Like someones got a remote to my channels and they keep switching em
Peace is all I want and here is where I'll sit
'Til the cows come marching home I won't move an inch
Until I'm overcome with calmness and still
And then I'll pick up where I left off, I promise I will
Yeah I'm talking 'bout a John Boat
Cane poles in it and the moonlight
Just trying to get away from my worries
Get away from the worries
I got my headphones on and a basket of crickets
Bumping that Jones
Trying to get away from my worries
Take me away from the worries
Take me away
[Outro]
Yeah
Ooh
Take me away
Take me away from my worries
