Float Your Boat
Ryan Follese Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The final countdown to the weekend
I'm talking 3 days off the deepend
The kind of buzz that keeps you reeling
Go get that something in the water you been needing

Whatever floats your boat
Whatever winds your watch
We got time to kill once we get off the clock
We got beer to drink
And we got trash to talk
Life's too fast, you've gotta learn to live it slow
Float your boat

T.G.I.F. Thank God I'm faded
Some call it lazy, I call it amazing
A pink umbrella, made in the shade and
I dont ever think I'm taking off these Ray Bans

Whatever floats your boat
Whatever pops your top
We got time to kill once we push off this dock
We got smoke to roll
And we got Rolling Rock
Life's too short so if you're not sure where to go
Float your boat

Whoah, oh, oh
Float your boat
Whoah, oh, oh
Float your boat

Whatever floats your boat
Whatever flips your switch
If it's on your mind then baby scratch that itch
If it turns you on then let it get you off
Even if that mother trucker's got a hole
Float your boat

Whoah, oh, oh
Float your boat
Whoah, oh, oh
Float your boat
Whoah, oh, oh
Float your boat




Float your boat
Float your boat

Overall Meaning

The song "Float Your Boat" by Ryan Follese is a fun and upbeat anthem about taking a break from the daily grind and enjoying life's simple pleasures. The lyrics convey a sense of careless freedom and a "live in the moment" mentality that encourages listeners to let go of their worries and do whatever makes them happy.


The first verse sets the stage for the weekend, promising three days of reckless abandon and a feeling of intoxication that takes over - this is echoed in the first line, which references the "final countdown" to the end of the workweek. The chorus repeats the phrase "whatever floats your boat," a common idiom that means to do whatever makes you happy or works for you. The verse also references drinking beer and talking trash, reinforcing the idea of letting loose and having a good time. The second verse continues this theme, with the singer expressing their appreciation for taking it easy and enjoying a drink with a pink umbrella in it (presumably a tropical cocktail) while wearing their Ray-Bans (sunglasses).


Throughout the song, there is a sense of positivity and encouragement for listeners to let go and do what feels right for them. The overall message is one of embracing life's pleasures and not taking things too seriously.

LOVE IT!! 💖💖

Monica Horan

I really love this song ❤

December Blue

Hope that this song gets a spot in the charts. I hate it when talent like this goes unrecognized by the charts. Charts only focus on the popular artists who make music that's not as good. There are millions of songs that can rank above those, I mean other artists barely get a chance to shine. Whatever be the result, I'm happy to listen to this song. In my opinion it should definitely be in a good rank

Zuhail

alex osko you've never been in a live concert of hcr

alex osko

December Blue I'll agree it is a good song but all credit to auto tune.. little talent there

Ahnaf Adib
