about

Features a sample of the James R. Barker horns, recorded by Paul Scinocca. Paul's YouTube channel can be found at www.youtube.com/channel/UCR4Q5G8QdBijHQuYqtU3hAA - tell him I sent you and maybe he'll forgive me for cheekily pinching his work!

Also, a special mention to the lads aboard 'Wye Invader 2' for inspiring the third verse with their weir-shooting narrow boat antics. Thanks for the entertainment, gents. www.youtube.com/channel/UCU2UUSjiEuJyaCGMY5oiDeA

lyrics

FREIGHTER TO DULUTH

Hey you
What you doing with your life?
Wanna come make adventure with me?
It's true
I've been thinking that it's time
We should run from the money and breathe

So hey you
It's up to you now
If you approve
We'll take a freighter to Duluth and stowaway
What do you say now?

Hey you baby
This train's crazy
We can ride it like we stole it again
It's true maybe
This plan's hazy
But there's more to life than reaching the end

Hey you
We can't lose
If you approve, babe
We'll take a freighter to Duluth and run away
What would you say?

(Play the horns, James)

Hey you
Let's take a narrow boat
And sail it over the weir
On a high tide
It's all good
Yeah I've got nothing to hide
We should be out there
Living a good life

Hey you
Come on now
We got the answer
We'll take a freighter to Duluth and lose our minds
All of the time

So who knew?
We got the proof
We took the road from the ruin
Now we're riding on a freighter to Duluth
Ain't that the truth
Watch what we do

Hey you
Hey, hey you
We'll take a freighter to Duluth
That's what we'll do
