Boathouse |
I would rather be at the boathouse, out of the daily grind |
I’d sooner be down at the boathouse, what a way to unwind |
Now I don’t wanna know how it feels to be set back |
So I’m leavin' here on a one-way track |
I’d rather be in mosquito alley, out of my right hand lane |
You should see my mosquiot tally, all that moves is fair game |
Now I don’t wanna know how it feels not to be loose |
So I’m leavin' here on the first caboose |
So I’m leavin' here on the first caboose |
I can’t sleep by a gentle ocean, I can’t sleep my a water fall |
I can’t sleep by a lovely river. |
I can’t sleep. |
I can’t sleep |
Dee dee dee, dee dee dee, dee dee dee dee |
I would rather sleep at the boathouse, what more can I say |
I’d soon eat down at the boathouse, let it carry me away |
Now I don’t wanna know how it feels to step aside |
So I’m leavin' here on a wicked ride |
Or I could be back at the alehouse, with a flagon or two |
A few blocks south of the jailhouse, with a hole in my shoe |
Now I don’t wanna know how it feels to stop a truck |
So I’m leavin' here and wishin' you good luck |
I’m leavin' here and wishin' you good luck |
I can’t sleep by a gentle ocean, I can’t sleep my a water fall |
I can’t sleep by a lovely river. |
I can’t sleep. |
I can’t sleep |
Dee dee dee, dee dee dee, dee dee dee dee |
I’d rather be in mosquito alley, keepin' spiders in line |
I’d sooner be down at the boathouse, what a way to unwind |
Now I don’t wanna know how it feels not to be loose |
So I’m leavin' here on the first caboose |
I’m leavin' here on the first caboose |
Dee dee dee, dee dee dee, dee dee dee dee |
