Shore Leave 歌词

Well with buck shot eyes and a purple heart I rolled down the national stroll And with a big fat paycheck Strapped to my hip sack And a shore leave wristwatch underneath My sleeve In a hong kong drizzle on cuban heels I rowed down the gutter to the blood bank And i'd left all my papers on the ticonderoga And was in a bad need of a shave And so i slopped at the corner on cold chow mein And shot billards with a midget Until the rain stopped And i bought a long sleeved shirt With horses on the front And some gum and a lighter and a knife And a new deck of cards (with girls on the back) And i sat down and wrote a letter to my wife And i said baby, i'm so far away from home And i miss my baby so I can't make it by myself I love you so Well i was pacing myself Trying to make it all last Squeezing all the life Out of a lousy two day pass And i had a cold one at the dragon With some filipino floor show And talked baseball with a lieutenant Over a singapore sling And i wondered how the same moon outside Over this chinatown fair Could look down on illinois An And you know i love you baby And i'm so far away from home And i miss my baby so I can't make it by myself I love you so Shore leave... Shore leave...
