Boat People Lyrics - Midnight Walkers - Stand High Patrol

(Chorus) 

Rich people cross the border 

but the poor people cannot (x2) 

Verse 1 

lucky if you got the passport 

you get to the closest aeroport 

the is not like the people on the boat 

poor people do jumper stunts 

if you get lucky you are free 

if not you can leave your contry 

this is not a joke this is reality 

this is the price of liberty 

(Chorus) x2 

Cannot, cannot, cannot, cannot, 

and the poor people cannot (x2) 

Verse 2 

there is a little ship leaving the harbour tonight 

there is a lonely ship leaving the harbour tonight 

in the bay it is raining 

and the wind from the west is blowing 

the little ship yes is leaving 

when the storm is comming 

but the ship is sailing accross the waves, 

leaving the bay this evening 

inside of the ship triple ? men 

and all the kids and wifes are crying.
