Panama Freighter lyrics
Song information
Artist: Jethro Tull Album: Ian Anderson: The Secret Language Of Birds
Lyrics
Night close in on a shanty town Panama freighter wearing rusty brown She sails tomorrow and she's homeward bound Head up on a lumpy sea
I'm not the only lonely planet rider In this one horse town, I'm thinking And I won't over-rate or patronize you
I know we're as different as chalk and cheese; As black hole winters and salad days And I wouldn't like your mother much anyway But it's not her I'm taking home with me
Don't intend to dress you in silver threads Like some trophy in sublime seclusion Won't try to educate or civilize you
Night close in on a shanty town Panama freighter wearing rusty brown She sails tomorrow and she's homeward bound And you're bound to come home with me On the panama freighter with me
