"If I Had a Boat" - Lyle Lovett
This song pretty much sums up the desires of anyone who's ever felt fed up, low down, burned out and cashed in. Sometimes, after being landlocked so long, you need to get the hell outta Dodge; what better way than having a floating place to go where you call the shots?
"Gulf of Mexico" - Shawn Mullins
Mullins' ballad of love gone cold is set against the backdrop of the hot and humid Gulf Coast.
"One Big Love" - Patty Griffin
"Let's take a ride to the seaside / We can go out swimming in the high tide / Just wear your shorts and your long hair / Don't forget the lawnchair"
"Cannonball" - Brandi Carlile
Whooooooooooooooooooooooo! Here I go! Cannonball! Wait a minute. Who drained the pool? (Something tells me this song was not about what I thought it was.)
"Get Out the Map" - Indigo Girls
"I'm gonna clear my head / I'm gonna drink that sun ... Get out the map and lay your finger anywhere down / We'll leave the figuring to those we pass on the way out of town"

Divorce Song
Liz Phair
And when I asked for a separate room
It was late at night, and we'd been driving since noon
But if I'd known how that would sound to you
I would have stayed in your bed for the rest of my life
Just to prove I was right
That it's harder to be friends than lovers
And you shouldn't try to mix the two
'Cause if you do it and you're still unhappy
Then you know that the problem is you
And it's true that I stole your lighter
And it's also true that I lost the map
But when you said that I wasn't worth talking to
I had to take your word on that
But if you'd known how that would sound to me
You would have taken it back
And boxed it up and buried it in the ground
Boxed it up and buried it in the ground
Boxed it up and buried it in the ground
Burned it up and thrown it away
You put in my hands a loaded gun
And then told me not to fire it
When you did the things you said were up to me
And then accused me of trying to fuck it up
But you've never been a waste of my time
It's never been a drag
So take a deep breath and count back from ten
And maybe you'll be alright
And the license said you had to stick around until I was dead
But if you're tired of looking at my face, I guess I already am
But you've never been a waste of my time
It's never been a drag
So take a deep breath and count back from ten
And maybe you'll be alright
