On the 1st of November 1957 Lyle Lovett was born in North Harris County Texas -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyle_Lovett
In 1988 he released one of the all time great Country Albums - Pontiac, the opening track of which was "if I had a boat" A simple but beautiful melody that circles around your ears.
"If I had a boat"
"The mystery masked man was smart
He got himself a Tonto
'Cause Tonto did the dirty work for free
But Tonto he was smarter
And one day said kemo sabe
Kiss my ass I bought a boat
I'm going out to sea"
