I'm going down to Puerto Rico |
|
I'm going down on the midnight plane |
|
I'm going down on the Vomit Express |
|
I'm going down with my suitcase pain. |
|
You can take an ancient vacation |
|
fly over Florida's deep-blue end |
|
rise up out of this mad-house nation |
|
I'm going down with my oldest tender friend |
|
I'm going down to Puerto Rico |
|
I'm going down on the midnight plane |
|
I'm going down on the Vomit Express |
|
I'm going down with my suitcase pain. |
|
We know each other now twenty years, |
|
seen murders, and we wept tears |
|
Now we're gonna take ourselves a little bit of free time |
|
Wandering round the southern poverty clime |
|
I'm going down to Puerto Rico |
|
I'm going down on the midnight plane |
|
I'm going down on the Vomit Express |
|
I'm going down with my suitcase pain. |
|
Start flyin' with all the poor, old, sick ladies |
|
Everybody and drunk, and they're crazy |
|
Flyin' home to die in the wobbly air |
|
All night long, they wanted the cheapest fare. |
|
I'm going down to Puerto Rico |
|
I'm going down on the old midnight plane |
|
I'm going down on the Vomit Express |
|
I'm going down with my suitcase pain. |
|
When we're down on the air field, I've never been there, |
|
Except once walkin' around the air field in the great, wet heat, |
|
Walk out, smell that old mother-load of shit from the tropics |
|
Stomach growl , oh friends, beware. |
|
I'm going down to Puerto Rico |
|
I'm going down on the midnight plane |
|
I'm going down on the Vomit Express |
|
I'm going down with my suitcase pain. |
|
Me and my friend, no we won't even drink, |
|
And I won't eat meat, I won't fuck around |
|
Gonna walk the streets alone, will blink and wink |
|
Taxi's, buses and US gas all around. |
|
I'm going down to Puerto Rico |
|
I'm going down on the midnight plane |
|
I'm going down on the Vomit Express |
|
I'm going down with my suitcase pain. |
|
Start poetry at the university, meet kids, |
|
look at their breasts, touch their hands, kiss their heads |
|
seen from the heart, maybe the four buddhist normal truths |
|
\"Existence is suffering\ |
