I want my good time up forever - maybe that`s enough for me
so everytime I take a flivver - I got my return journey
there`s a girl she`s very ok - always fix me up with food
we make noise in by the yard - & we sell hoochie-koochie too
Bonaventure-I`ve been everywhere
Bonaventure-it`s a wide wide place
born to rule it-maybe you don`t care
about where you go or about where you stay
my good friend boy he`s a friend - yeh he`s a boy & he`s a face
& his attitude is that - we can walk `round any place
we don`t get in by the window - we gots tickets & grease pay
& we make our loot a loot a - skankin` right enough from way
I don`t run & I don`t hide - when I run from you
I don`t run & I don`t hide - making sure I`m up tonight
never run I never hide - I`m blue blue blue
never run I never hide - I know which way is up tonight
(where do ya think your going my friend I mean now, eh?-everywhere)
will you hush my naughty mouth - & bar my journey out of bounds
take the mince out of my step - & hold my tongue & shoot me down
if that takes my time & money - still don`t see how I lose out
looking at my next contender - makes me laugh until I shout
