Lightfoot, Gordon - Boathouse Lyrics
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
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
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

Lightfoot, Gordon Boathouse Comments
really cool song from the very talented gordon lightfoot
Always loved this from 'A Painter Passing Through,' and whenever Gordon and the band play Nashville, I may be heard calling out the title from my seat, as applause for the previous number settles down. I wish this could be added to the lineup, a fine workout +Gordon Lightfoot + Topic
