I know the video, and I'm not watching it again. Reminds me too much of my late Grandfather, and I can't get through it all the way without crying like a little girl. :D

HA HA! Actually I was thinking about teaching my son (and other kids) how to waterski. The Cig is my fifth boat, and it has some great memories. But, there are some great memories on the other four too! :D

It was painted red the stripe was white
It was eighteen feet from the bow to the stern light
Secondhand from a dealer in Atlanta
I rode up with daddy when he went there to get her
We put on a shine; put on a motor
Built out of love, made for the water
Ran her for years, 'til the transom got rotten
A piece of my childhood that will never be forgotten

It was just on old plywood boat
With a '75 Johnson with electric choke
A young boy two hands on the wheel
I can't replace the way it made me feel
And I would turn her sharp
And I would make her whine
He'd say, "you can't beat the way an old wood boat rides"
Just a little lake across the Alabama line
But I was king of the ocean
When daddy let me drive
