Lyrics Please Don't Put Me on a Slow Boat To Trowbridge - Hugh Cornwell

Please Don't Put Me on a Slow Boat To Trowbridge

don’t mind if you send me to coventry
spain’s not against my will
hong kong china possibility
sweden didn’t get my fill
been down south of the border
I love durham in the dales
I’ve sungporean law and order
and new york city never fails
I promise I’ll mend my ways
please don’t put me on a slow boat to trowbrisdge
not ready for salad days
sydney and me go together
I’ve worn a panamanian hat
I’ve had some fun down in dubai
and tokyo is where it’s at
spent two weeks in malindi
there’s a black hole in calcutt a
met italian primadonnas
and in the phillippines I got a hut
I promise I’ll mend my ways
not ready for salad days
