Boathouse - Gordon Lightfoot
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
