Biography:
Having formed the Boat Drunks exploratory committee in the winter of 2000, Jake is considered the "father" of the Boat Drunks. In the winter of 2000, while trying to form the Boat Drunks, Jake met Mike Miller, and was invited to do the lead singing and play rhythm guitar (something new!) with Southern Cross. While with Southern Cross, he opened shows for several rock legends: The Marshall Tucker Band, The Grandmothers (Frank Zappa's old band), and Kevn Kinney (former front man of Drivin' and Cryin').

[Verse]
G Am
I wanna be where there's coconut trees and the air is salty sweet
D
Surrounded by the water and the temperature is hotter
C D
Than a summertime St. Maarten beach
G C Am
I don't wanna pillage I don't wanna plunder I just wanna spend all day in the sun
D C G
With a Cuban cigar, my four-stringed guitar and a case of Puerto Rican rum
[Chorus]
G
I wish I was a pirate on the Caribbean,
Am
Smokin' on my boat and Hava?a daydreamin'
D
Drinkin' margaritas and Jimmy's there singin',
C G
I wish I was a pirate on the Caribbean
[Bridge]
G Am
I'd make my camp with a navigator's lamp underneath a starry sky
D C G
And the ocean breeze through the green palm trees will be my lullaby
[Chorus]
G
I wish I was a pirate on the Caribbean,
Am
Smokin' on my boat and Hava?a daydreamin'

Drinkin' margaritas and Jimmy's there singin',

G C G
No sharks no fins no pirate sins no livin' a life of crime
C Am D
No black eye patch no Captain Jack just Cuervo, salt and lime
G Am
The fun would never end unless the Caribbean wind blew in a big hurricane
D C G
I'd head for land toss my anchor in the sand and sing "Boat Drinks" in the rain
[Chorus]
G
I wish I was a pirate on the Caribbean,
Am
Smokin' on my boat and Hava?a daydreamin'

Drinkin' margaritas and Jimmy's there singin',

I wish I was a pirate on the Caribbean, yea

Drinkin' that Taquilla and Jimmy's there singin'
