Morten Abel - Cecilia Carter 



One of these days I get my boat on the water 

My boat on the water one of these days 

Named after my girl Cecilia Carter 

You know the American actress? 

And when Cecilia floats on the water 

And winter is over come summertime 

Very soon now I'm going to be a father 

I hope it's a daughter this time 



And if I get, if I get enough money 

Or I find a pot of gold 

I have a big family to look after me when I'm old 

But first of all, all I want is this boat see 

My Dad never could afford one you see 

He got too many mouths to feed 



My Mamma always used to say to me darling 

To everything there is a beginning 

So first I got to get Cecilia Carter on the water floating 

I stopped by the river bank 

And put my toes in the sand 

I might not need a family plan 

Cos if I listen to my heart 

I'll forever be Cecilia's man 



And if I get, if I get enough money 

Or I find a pot of gold 

I have a big family to look after me when I'm old 

But first of all, all I want is this boat see 

My Dad never could afford one you see 

He got too many mouths to feed 



And if I get, if I get enough money 

Or I find a pot of gold 

I have a big family to look after me when I'm old 

But first of all, all I want is this boat see 

My Dad never could afford one you see 

He got too many mouths to feed
