Lyrics

Here I go down memory lane I'm always sinking with the ship that waits But every time I lay my eyes on that hull I slip to the bottom and I don't need nothing When you don't need nothing There's a certain type of game to play I don't need a home, don't need a lover No friends around me to support each other And now I'm sailing away I learned from the best how to cut the rest And then I'll take what I get and won't want for anything And now I'm sailing away I don't need a home, don't need a lover I'll be out on my own come hell or high water One of my girls, she's living the dream Out in a cabin for a dollar a day And 'cause that's the way she has to have it I'll send her my letters, a candle, and a jacket And the other's on the river She'll be out there 'til her dying day And 'cause that's the way she has to have it I'll skip each stone, I won't keep it just to have it And now I'm sailing away I learned from the best how to cut the rest And then I'll take what I get and won't want for anything And now I'm sailing away I don't need a home, don't need a lover I'll be out on my own come hell or high water Here I go down memory lane I'm always sinking with the ship that waits But every time I lay my eyes on that hull I slip to the bottom and I don't need nothing
