Gordon Lightfoot - Boathouse Lyrics
I would rather be at the boathouse, out of the daily grindId sooner be down at the boathouse, what a way to unwindNow I dont wanna know how it feels to be set backSo Im leavin here on a one-way trackId rather be in mosquito alley, out of my right hand laneYou should see my mosquiot tally, all that moves is fair gameNow I dont wanna know how it feels not to be looseSo Im leavin here on the first cabooseSo Im leavin here on the first cabooseI cant sleep by a gentle ocean, I cant sleep my a water fallI cant sleep by a lovely river. I cant sleep. I cant sleepDee dee dee, dee dee dee, dee dee dee deeI would rather sleep at the boathouse, what more can I sayId soon eat down at the boathouse, let it carry me awayNow I dont wanna know how it feels to step asideSo Im leavin here on a wicked rideOr I could be back at the alehouse, with a flagon or twoA few blocks south of the jailhouse, with a hole in my shoeNow I dont wanna know how it feels to stop a truckSo Im leavin here and wishin you good luckIm leavin here and wishin you good luckI cant sleep by a gentle ocean, I cant sleep my a water fallI cant sleep by a lovely river. I cant sleep. I cant sleepDee dee dee, dee dee dee, dee dee dee deeId rather be in mosquito alley, keepin spiders in lineId sooner be down at the boathouse, what a way to unwindNow I dont wanna know how it feels not to be looseSo Im leavin here on the first cabooseIm leavin here on the first cabooseDee dee dee, dee dee dee, dee dee dee dee
