Mark Knopfler - Postcards from Paraguay Lyrics

Artist: Mark Knopfler

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Mark Knopfler

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

I couldn't stay and face the music
So many reasons why
I won't be sending postcards from Paraguay
From Paraguay, from Paraguay

I robbed a bank full of dinero
A great big mountain of dough
So it was goodbye companero
And cheerio

I couldn't stay and face the music
So many reasons why
I won't be sending postcards from Paraguay
From Paraguay, from Paraguay

I never meant to be a cheater
But there was blood on the wall
I had to steal from Peter
To pay what I owed to Paul

Couldn't stay and face the music
So many reasons why
I won't be sending postcards from Paraguay
From Paraguay, from Paraguay

Paraguay
