Text: Chris Garneau. Island Song.
And oh, the wretch is gone
And oh, the sorries begin
And oh, the drinking has thinned
Oh, still I wrestle
I wrestle within
And then to you
I don't look so good
Like I did what I felt like
Like I did what I would
But I don't have my dog
And I don't make a sound
I live on an island
In the middle of town
So if you've got a thing
WIth me or my friend
Remember what we've been through
Remember where we've been
We don't have our dogs
And we don't make a sound
We live on an island
In the middle of town
And oh, the wretch is gone
And oh, the sorries begin
And oh, the drinking has thinned
Oh still I wrestle
I wrestle within
And then to you
I don't look so good
Like I did what I felt like
Like I did what I would
But I don't have my dog
And I don't make a sound
I live on an island
In the middle of town
And oh, the sorries begin
And oh, the drinking has thinned
Oh, still I wrestle
I wrestle within
And then to you
I don't look so good
Like I did what I felt like
Like I did what I would
But I don't have my dog
And I don't make a sound
I live on an island
In the middle of town
So if you've got a thing
WIth me or my friend
Remember what we've been through
Remember where we've been
We don't have our dogs
And we don't make a sound
We live on an island
In the middle of town
And oh, the wretch is gone
And oh, the sorries begin
And oh, the drinking has thinned
Oh still I wrestle
I wrestle within
And then to you
I don't look so good
Like I did what I felt like
Like I did what I would
But I don't have my dog
And I don't make a sound
I live on an island
In the middle of town
