Old Fat Boat

歌詞

Here I am, man, all alone again Anchored aweigh, the hell and gone again Another mile from another town The wind north-east, the rain coming down Home is the sailor, home from the sea Leave the home for the mildew, friend to the flea I don't care, man, I'm happy I got an old fat boat, she's slow but handsome Hard in the chine and soft in the transom I love her well and she must love me But I think it's only for my money (Instrumental) No more tobacco, no more cheese I'm sprung in the back and lame in the knees It's a damned good thing I'm easy to please There ain't nothing in town on a Sunday I don't care, man, I'm happy I got an old fat boat, she's slow but handsome Hard in the chine and soft in the transom I love her well and she must love me But I think it's only for my money And I don't mind staying, and I don't mind going But I come damn tired of rowing Yes, I don't mind staying, and I don't mind going But I come damn tired of rowing (Instrumental) Oh, but I got milk and I got ice A little home-made bread, a little old, but nice Everybody puts their cooking hat on When you tell 'em you're leaving in the morning I don't care, man, I'm happy I got an old fat boat, she's slow but handsome Hard in the chine and soft in the transom I love her well and she must love me But I think it's only for my money And I don't mind staying, and I don't mind going But I come damn tired of rowing Yes, I don't mind staying, and I don't mind going But I come damn tired of rowing (Instrumental) You know, I got coffee, I got tea I got the beans and the beans got me I got tuna fish, I got rum I got a two-pound splinter in my thumb So I'll take my toddy and my vitamin C And the radio for my company Oh, me, I got the hydrogen peroxide blues I don't care, man, I'm happy I got an old fat boat, she's slow but handsome Hard in the chine and soft in the transom I love her well and she must love me But I think it's only for my money And I don't mind staying, and I don't mind going But I come damn tired of rowing Yes, I don't mind staying, and I don't mind going But I come damn tired of rowing (Instrumental) Well mercy, mercy, I do declare If half the fun of going is the getting there Mercy, Percy, you better start rowing 'Cause the other half of getting there is going
