Crossing the Chesapeake Songtext
von Simians

It′s a long way to be
On the road without sleep
From the Eastern Shore
Murky waters run deep
To our homes on the farm
Off the roads, far from harm
Now the night's upon me
And I′m too tired to speak

Crossing the Chesapeake
Feeling so weak and half asleep
I couldn't keep up
The hypnotic humming of the old motor running
Is putting me under a spell


Oh my uncle I still
Think those long Maryland drives
With you behind the wheel
Of your green Samurai
Were as soothing as song
This exhaustion's so strong
Drive me over the barge
Drive me under the stars

Crossing the Chesapeake
Feeling so weak and half asleep
I couldn′t keep up
The hypnotic humming of the old motor running
Is putting me under a spell
Crossing the Chesapeake
Feeling so weak and half asleep
I couldn′t keep up
The hypnotic humming of the old motor running
Is putting me under a spell
In a sleep, I fell

Your cigar smoke's so thick it′s making me sick
Your cigar smoke's so thick it′s making me sick
Your cigar smoke's so thick it′s making me sick
Your cigar smoke's so thick it's making me sick
So late in the night
