Oh God I’m An Ocean Buoy

John Denver’s Final Song

Took a flight from the farm and I never came back

Built a plane from a kit But I didn’t have the knack

Jumped in the cockpit and downed a six-pack

And now I’m an ocean buoy

Well, I grabbed the controls And I started to fiddle

Got flames coming up On my face like a griddle

Air flight ain’t nothing But a funny, funny riddle

So now I’m an ocean buoy.

Well, my head’s chopped in pieces And my body’s full of dents

They’ll identify me By my guitar’s fingerprints

I tried to “dry out” But instead got a rinse

And now I’m an ocean buoy

Well, it’s really farrr out When you’re down ‘neath the water

I just ain’t been right Since I started on the bottle

I reach for Jim Beam But instead grab the throttle

And now I’m an ocean buoy

Well, I grabbed the controls And I started to fiddle

Got flames coming up On my face like a griddle

George Burns appeared beside me And we prayed just a little

Oh God! I’m an ocean buoy!

The day’s just about over And I’m sinking kinda low

In the undersea world of Jacques Cousteau

Calypso can you find me By the bubbles that I blow

‘Cause now I’m an ocean buoy.
