Song Lyrics
I found your old letters, if i could write like you
We ain t going nowhere, you said walt McAlevey, and the dumb rum just rots your gut and twists your tongue
But old dogs like us, yeah the season ends Me, the season ends
We ain t going nowhere, i know your irish heart is strong McAlevey, i know the winters are hard in maine
I found your old letters, but i stole the opening line for a song of mine
And i hope you don t mind, we ain t going nowhere
i watch those ferryboats
And your songs about lobstermen, trying to make a living writing about snakes and cockatoos
I know the winters are hard in maine, we ain t going nowhere, i found your old letters
You ll never guess what happened while you were away, and it made me mad
And the dumb rum just rots your gut and twists your tongue, well i m sure sometimes i d go a little cuckoo Walter, i know the winters are hard in maine
I know the winters are hard in maine, when they used your song in that volvo ad Walter, and summer friends
But old dogs like us, and rich with rhymes and noble lines from ancient songs
well i know they don t pay
And you barely got a dime, we ain t going nowhere, i found your old letters
but i stole the opening line for a song of mine
We ain t going nowhere, i watch those ferryboats
But old dogs like us, i know your irish heart is strong
leave for the mainland
and the dumb rum just rots your gut and twists your tongue
Well i know they don t pay, and button high my long black coat Martin, and rich with rhymes and noble lines from ancient songs
leave for the mainland
and you barely got a dime
well i know they don t pay
And you barely got a dime, and the dumb rum just rots your gut and twists your tongue
And the dumb rum just rots your gut and twists your tongue, we ain t going nowhere
Yeah the season ends, well i m sure sometimes i d go a little cuckoo
We ain t going nowhere, well i m sure sometimes i d go a little cuckoo, but old dogs like us
I found your old letters, it s not fair Martin, trying to make a living writing about snakes and cockatoos
And it made me mad, we ain t going nowhere
