Rate Boathouse
Artist : Gordon lightfoot Song : 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
