arlo guthrie - slow boat lyrics
if i could go back home to the place i was raised
i’d catch the next bus and be there in a few days
but i just can’t do it, i was raised on the road
i’ve got no place to go to, so l guess l’ll stay on
there’s dreams that i’ve had, i wrote in songs yesterday
but the waves of the world have washed them away
still i carry them with me wherever i go
they’re my only possesions on this slow boat back home
i’ve kept all my memories buried deep in my heart
where time cannot touch them and rip them apart
still i look for the hour when i will be free
from constantly dying and living on dreams
if i could go back home to the place i was raised
i’d catch the next bus and be there in a few days
my dreams in my pockets, my life, that’s gone wrong
they’re my only possessions on this slow boat back home
