Slow Freight Serving my term with a riverboat status Wishing for the weather to be better, ‘round the bend Every port has a shadow of a beacon But I can’t dock until the shadow, is dead ahead I’m hauling slow freight, many days are in my wake I’m hauling slow freight, many days I aim to make In my hold are the echoes of the seasons Cruising on the current I been doing, the best I can Knotting up my net cause I want to catch a keeper But all I’ve got to show are some minnows, and loose ends I’m hauling slow freight, many days are in my wake I’m hauling slow freight, many days I aim to make I serve my sentence hauling freight When I’m done I’ll shed my weight The weight and the sum try to drag me down I won’t stop till I’m aground Robert Chaney 2014
