Lyrics
Living On A Houseboat Words: Charles MacConnach Music: Charles MacConnach Verse 1 Barracuda and the Manta Ray Blue Crabs, Stone Crabs, Green Moray Flying Fish and the Red Snapper Don't put paper in the boat crapper Verse 2 Holy Mackerel there's an Albacore Sailfish, Swordfish, Man-O-War Sea Trout, Weakfish and Wahoo Pigfish, Grunts and Croakers too Chorus Living on a houseboat mighty fine Fred will pull your anchor line Going to shore you know we hate But we need more gas, beer and bait (more bait!) Verse 3 Glowing worms and Anemones Pelicans in the Mangrove trees Got to anchor it's getting late Spiney Lobster good on the plate Verse 4 Blowing sunset on the old Conch shell Catfish, Minnows and the Jack Crevall Dolphins surfing across our bow Don't get drunk and kill the old Sea Cow Repeat Chorus Verse 5 Coastal charts, dead reckoning Snook won't bite and Jellyfish sting Bonefish, Tarpon and Ballyhoo Jewfish, Bluefish and Grouper too Verse 6 Parrotfish and the Pompano Shrimp and Scallops and fish that blow Anchor on the coral and you go to jail And they'll feed your ass to a Killer Whale Repeat Chorus
