Burlington Lyrics by George donaldson

The White Rose

0

I’m stuck out in Detroit and the sky’s a deepest gray
A full day in an airport, with another plane delay
Well there’s flaming hot dogs and coffee stall
And people pass by car
But I’ve only got $10 and I know it won’t go far
Bound in like a prisoner, with the inmates passing me by
All bound for some destination somewhere through the sky
James Galway’s coming through my earphones he’s easing up this pain
As I watch another plane delayed by the bloody pouring rain
Chorus:
And I wished I was in Burlington, with the people that I know
And I wished I was in Burlington, down in Lake Ontario
I should be playing on the stage at 9 or 10 o’clock
With the thunder passing overhead as the plane begins to dock
I’m thinking to myself, it won’t be long ‘til we’re away
The plane gets redirected, now it’s gone out to L.A
Chorus
It’s half way now ‘til midnight and I finally made it here
I’m tired, and I’m hungry and I’m thristin’ for a beer
The gig has long since been and gone, the moon is shining bright
And an empty invitation says come back some other night
Chorus x2
Down in Lake Ontario
