Make My Way — текст песни (The Blue Dogs)

Here comes that boat floating down the river
The south bound channel on the west side
It looks like the captain`s pulling over
And I`m bound to take a ride
Take a ride

Well down at the dock I paid my fare
I paid only one way not two
I don`t know where but I`ll get there
And on my way I`ll sing this tune
And when the night falls down on the southern city
And there`s nothing left to do but play

Well opportunity is beckoning to me
And I`ll make my way back home some day

Don`t you know my daddy was a real hard worker
For us he did all he could do
Worked all day for the white collar man
So he could send us off to school
But I feel just like cryin
Because I didn`t play by all his rules

Well opportunity is beckoning to me
And I`ll make my way back home some day

Here comes that boat floating down the river
The south bound channel on the west side
It looks like the captain`s pulling over
And I`m bound to take a ride
Take a ride

And when the night falls down on the southern city
And there`s nothing left to do but play

Well opportunity is beckoning to me
And I`ll make my way back home some day
