Mark Knopfler
Postcards from Paraguay
[Verse 1]
One thing was leading to the next
I bit off more than I could chew
I had the power to sign the cheques
It wasn't difficult to do
[Chorus]
I couldn't stay and face the music
So many reasons why
I won't be sending postcards
From Paraguay
From Paraguay
From Paraguay
[Verse 2]
I robbed a bank full of dinero
A great big mountain of dough
So it was goodbye compañero
And cheerio
[Chorus]
I couldn't stay and face the music
So many reasons why
I won't be sending postcards
From Paraguay
From Paraguay
From Paraguay
[Verse 3]
I never meant to be a cheater
But there was blood on the wall
But I had to steal from Peter
To pay what I owed to Paul
[Chorus]
I couldn't stay and face the music
So many reasons why
I won't be sending postcards
From Paraguay
From Paraguay
From Paraguay
