Versuri 12. Skagway Country Rag

Versuri/Lyrics "Skagway Country Rag" Alexandru Andries

------------------------------------------
And if one day I will die, 
I will die in the Skagway,
And if one day I will die, 
You'll never know the time !
I'll be a happy man for sure,
No troubles at my kitchen door,
You'll be far away, my dear,
Don't never come too near !
Your big nose, I've enough,
Always for the photograph,
That's one good reason to begin
To get rid of you.
You're a cook but a lousy one,
What else could you do for fun ?
Scrambled eggs and on the run,
That's all you could do.
And if one day I will die, 
I will die in the Skagway,
And if one day I will die, 
You'll never know the time.
I'll be a happy man for sure,
No troubles at my kitchen door,
You'll be far away, my dear,
Don't never come too near !
Not a dancer in your shoes,
That's how I came so close to blues,
The only way one could get loose
For at least one hour...
Comin' home, mamma's drunk,
No pink cloth in the trunk.
Now, how am I meant to be ever get used 
With a taste so sour ?
And if one day I will die, 
I will die in the Skagway,
And if one day I will die, 
You'll never know the time.
I'll be a happy man for sure,
No troubles at my kitchen door,
You'll be far away, my dear,
Don't never come too near !
And if one day I will die, 
I will die in the Skagway,
And if one day I will die, 
You'll never know the time.
I'll be a happy man for sure,
No troubles at my kitchen door,
You'll be far away, my dear,
Don't never come too near !
Your big mouth, there's a talk,
Makes you take a walk,
Better take the walk 
Than listen to you !
That's all I had to say,
'Bout there happy day, 
Then 'bout there happy nights 
When I was with you.
And if one day I will die, 
I will die in the Skagway,
And if one day I will die, 
You'll never know the time.
I'll be a happy man for sure,
No troubles at my kitchen door,
You'll be far away, my dear,
Don't never come too near !
And if one day I will die, 
I will die in the Skagway,
And if one day I will die, 
You'll never know the time.
