Duxton Blues
It isn't funny how often we missed the boat
Did we love the shoreline so much?
Purchased tickets, packed our bags, let the years bleed
We should've told them we were from somewhere else
Then with nobody knowing
And we'd already be over here, over there
Everywhere we were going
If you were a native son or daughter
You could wonder where the old country's gone
Feel your reflection disappearing
And hear the unsung song
Tell it to the birds you were from somewhere else
And with nobody knowing
And you'd already be in the time, in the place
Anywhere you were going
We came to the party, showed up on time
Took events as they strangely came
Two by two they left by their arks
To escape our heavy rain
I should have told you about my specialty
Couldn't blame me for not knowing
Oh, I should have told you about my tendency
Couldn't blame me for not knowing
Then I'm always gonna be in the wrong
When they're right
And coming while they're going
Yes I'm always gonna be in the wrong
When they're right
And coming while they're going
Did we love the shoreline so much?
Purchased tickets, packed our bags, let the years bleed
We should've told them we were from somewhere else
Then with nobody knowing
And we'd already be over here, over there
Everywhere we were going
If you were a native son or daughter
You could wonder where the old country's gone
Feel your reflection disappearing
And hear the unsung song
Tell it to the birds you were from somewhere else
And with nobody knowing
And you'd already be in the time, in the place
Anywhere you were going
We came to the party, showed up on time
Took events as they strangely came
Two by two they left by their arks
To escape our heavy rain
I should have told you about my specialty
Couldn't blame me for not knowing
Oh, I should have told you about my tendency
Couldn't blame me for not knowing
Then I'm always gonna be in the wrong
When they're right
And coming while they're going
Yes I'm always gonna be in the wrong
When they're right
And coming while they're going
