Drake's Drum

William Topley · Other Songs - William Topley

Drake's train blowing behind my shack

Drake's train rolling on down the track

I'm gonna ride that train to Carolina

I'm gonna win my baby back



I took a white ship down to the Portobello Bay

I took a white ship down to the Portobello Bay

I said Drake is in his hammock man a thousand miles

away from here



I left Port Harcourt I've gone to the Caribbean Sea

I left Port Harcourt down to the Caribbean Sea

I said rum and blood and powder kegs

Have made a monkey out of me

I said Drake has hit the mile train secured his place

in history



Drake's train blowing behind my shack

Drake's train rolling on down the line

I said I don't know what to do about my sweet thing

Back in Carolina

You know I don't know what to do about my sweet thing

Back in Carolina



I said Lord, why did you cry Carolina

Sweet lover wipe your eyes, Carolina
