[00:10.39] I would rather be at the boathouse, out of the daily grind
[00:18.80] I'd sooner be down at the boathouse, what a way to unwind
[00:28.83] Now I don't wanna know how it feels to be set back
[00:33.97] So I'm leavin' here on a one-way track
[00:38.07] I'd rather be in mosquito alley, out of my right hand lane
[00:50.52] You should see my mosquiot tally, all that moves is fair game
[01:00.57] Now I don't wanna know how it feels not to be loose
[01:05.58] So I'm leavin' here on the first caboose
[01:09.72] So I'm leavin' here on the first caboose
[01:14.29]
[01:18.34] I can't sleep by a gentle ocean, I can't sleep my a water fall
[01:26.76] I can't sleep by a lovely river. I can't sleep. I can't sleep
[01:36.74]
[01:37.95] Dee dee dee, dee dee dee, dee dee dee dee
[01:42.54]
[01:43.01] I would rather sleep at the boathouse, what more can I say
[01:51.33] I'd soon eat down at the boathouse, let it carry me away
[01:56.40] Now I don't wanna know how it feels to step aside
[02:07.06] So I'm leavin' here on a wicked ride
[02:11.45]
[02:14.91] Or I could be back at the alehouse, with a flagon or two
[02:24.08] A few blocks south of the jailhouse, with a hole in my shoe
[02:33.55] Now I don't wanna know how it feels to stop a truck
[02:38.78] So I'm leavin' here and wishin' you good luck
[02:43.20] I'm leavin' here and wishin' you good luck
[02:47.48]
[02:51.39] I can't sleep by a gentle ocean, I can't sleep my a water fall
[03:00.26] I can't sleep by a lovely river. I can't sleep. I can't sleep
[03:09.85]
[03:10.70] Dee dee dee, dee dee dee, dee dee dee dee
[03:15.24]
[03:15.64] I'd rather be in mosquito alley, keepin' spiders in line
[03:25.16] I'd sooner be down at the boathouse, what a way to unwind
[03:34.53] Now I don't wanna know how it feels not to be loose
[03:39.57] So I'm leavin' here on the first caboose
[03:44.02] I'm leavin' here on the first caboose
[03:47.91]
[03:49.67] Dee dee dee, dee dee dee, dee dee dee dee
