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 want to 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 ought ta see my mosquiot tally, all that moves is fair game
Now I don't want to know how it feels not to be loose
So I'm leavin' here on the 1st caboose
I'm leavin' here on the 1st caboose
I can't sleep by a gentle ocean. I can't sleep by 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 want ta 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 want ta know how it feels t'stop a truck
So I'm leavin' here and wishin' yew good luck
I'm leavin' here and wishin' yew good luck
I can't sleep by a gentle ocean. I can't sleep by 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 want to know how it feels not to be loose
So I'm leavin' here on the 1st caboose
I'm leavin' here on the 1st caboose
Dee dee dee, dee dee dee, dee dee dee dee
