Once when I was just a child Little creature runnin' wild In Queen City Something happened to me there They slip it to me in the air In Queen City
Evening shadows started to glow Colors like you'll never know Sitting pretty on the hill Ancient of a million thrills
Yo-ho, yo-ho, gotta keep afloat Crazy cradle in my leaky boat Yo-ho, yo-ho, gotta keep afloat Crazy cradle in my leaky boat
Take me home Home
Later on, I got around Stories of the underground In Queen City Tales of love and squandering and Tales of spirits wandering In Queen City
Tumble, crawl, and reaching bold Fill it till the glass is full Standing, screaming, on a hill Little creature loves me still
Yo-ho, yo-ho, gotta keep afloat Crazy cradle in my leaky boat Yo-ho, yo-ho, got to keep afloat Crazy cradle in this leaky boat
Can you take me home Take me, take me back home
Gotta keep afloat now In my leaky boat, hmm (Take me, take me, home) In Queen City In my leaky boat Queen City, yeah (Take me, take me, home) In Queen City (Queen City) (Take me, take me, home) In my leaky boat Gotta keep afloat now (Take me, take me, home) Queen City (whoa) In my leaky boat In my leaky boat
