paroles de chanson Wellington - Pokey LaFarge

After three month's on the road I flew to Wellington, New-Zealand
Strung out and stuck in, a hole I've been digging
Down on Cuba street, no worries on my mind
Tryin' to get a hold of the strongest thing I could find

Wellington (oh yeah)
You've got the best of me
And if I don't wake up tomorrow
Won't you bury me, in Wellington

The sun was slowly fading like a fire in the rain
I couldn't stop the burning I had in my veins
The flower of the poppy I follow with my nose
I search the whole town over, sweatin' through my clothes

Wellington (oh yeah)
You've got the best of me
And if I don't wake up tomorrow
Won't you bury me, in Wellington

When I met a stranger, bought what he had for sale
He put my hands in cuffs said son, you're going to jail
We walking towards the squad car as he read my rights to me
Looks like I better call up the US embassy

In Wellington (oh yeah)
You've got the best of me
And if I don't wake up tomorrow
Won't you bury me, in Wellington

Oh, judge is there nothing I can say
To save my skin and set me free today
Please just let me go back home
But if I must stay
Will you make sure sweet opium takes me far away

I miss my friends and family,
But I'm nowhere near them now but I'm nowhere near them now
Locked up in the South Pacific in a jail somewhere downtown
You've been a friendly island to me since I stepped upon your shore
And if I ever leave a free man, won't be coming back for more

Wellington (oh yeah)
You've got the best of me
And if I don't wake up tomorrow
Won't you bury me, in Wellington

Wellington (oh yeah)
You've got the best of me
And if I don't wake up tomorrow
Won't you bury me, in Wellington

Wellington
