Shore Leave歌词

[00:33.76]Well with buck shot eyes and a purple heart
[00:37.12]I rolled down the national stroll
[00:41.58]And with a big fat paycheck
[00:43.90]Strapped to my hip sack
[00:45.71]And a shore leave wristwatch underneath
[00:47.15]My sleeve
[00:50.15]In a Hong Kong drizzle on Cuban heels
[00:53.69]I rowed down the gutter to the Blood Bank
[00:59.63]And I'd left all my papers on the Ticonderoga
[01:01.70]And was in a bad need of a shave
[01:08.70]And so I slopped at the corner on cold chow mein
[01:11.70]And shot billards with a midget
[01:13.44]Until the rain stopped
[01:16.67]And I bought a long sleeved shirt
[01:18.42]With horses on the front
[01:20.14]And some gum and a lighter and a knife
[01:22.91]And a new deck of cards (with girls on the back)
[01:26.78]And I sat down and wrote a letter to my wife
[01:29.97]And I said Baby, I'm so far away from home
[01:39.89]And I miss my Baby so
[01:45.78]I can't make it by myself
[01:49.78]I love you so
[01:56.66]Well I was pacing myself
[01:57.71]Trying to make it all last
[02:01.40]Squeezing all the life
[02:02.90]Out of a lousy two day pass
[02:05.85]And I had a cold one at the Dragon
[02:07.72]With some Filipino floor show
[02:11.04]And talked baseball with a lieutenant
[02:13.13]Over a Singapore sling
[02:15.68]And I wondered how the same moon outside
[02:18.15]Over this Chinatown fair
[02:19.33]Could look down on Illinois
[02:23.22]And find you there
[02:25.78]And you know I love you Baby
[02:28.78]And I'm so far away from home
[02:32.22]And I miss my Baby so
[02:39.96]I can't make it by myself
[02:45.62]I love you so
